Sentence | Compound Name | Protein Name | Organism |
1 | Phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase/akt regulates bleomycin-induced fibroblast proliferation and collagen production. | Bleomycin | AKT serine/threonine kinase 1 | Homo sapiens |
2 | Exposure of lung fibroblasts to bleomycin, a known inducer of fibrosis, resulted in rapid activation of PI3K/Akt and a parallel increase in fibroblast proliferation and collagen production, characteristics of lung fibrosis. | Bleomycin | AKT serine/threonine kinase 1 | Homo sapiens |
3 | Inhibition of this phosphorylation by PI3K inhibitors or by dominant-negative Akt (T308A/S473A) expression abrogated the effects of bleomycin on fibroblast proliferation and collagen production, suggesting the role of PI3K/Akt in the fibrogenic process. | Bleomycin | AKT serine/threonine kinase 1 | Homo sapiens |
4 | Inhibition of this phosphorylation by PI3K inhibitors or by dominant-negative Akt (T308A/S473A) expression abrogated the effects of bleomycin on fibroblast proliferation and collagen production, suggesting the role of PI3K/Akt in the fibrogenic process. | Bleomycin | AKT serine/threonine kinase 1 | Homo sapiens |
5 | Activation of PI3K/Akt by bleomycin also led to transcriptional activation and protein expression of hypoxia-inducible factor-1alpha (HIF-1alpha) and vascular endothelial growth factor, which contributed to the fibroproliferative and collagen-inducing effects of bleomycin. | Bleomycin | AKT serine/threonine kinase 1 | Homo sapiens |
6 | Activation of PI3K/Akt by bleomycin also led to transcriptional activation and protein expression of hypoxia-inducible factor-1alpha (HIF-1alpha) and vascular endothelial growth factor, which contributed to the fibroproliferative and collagen-inducing effects of bleomycin. | Bleomycin | AKT serine/threonine kinase 1 | Homo sapiens |
7 | Inhibition of ROS generation by antioxidant enzymes, catalase and superoxide dismutase mimetic MnTBAP, abrogated the fibrogenic effects of bleomycin as well as its induction of PI3K/Akt and HIF-1alpha activation. | Bleomycin | AKT serine/threonine kinase 1 | Homo sapiens |
