GlossaryPhosphoinositide 3-kinase

enzyme involved in cell growth and survival signaling

Phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) is an enzyme that plays a crucial role in cell growth, proliferation, and survival by activating signaling pathways inside cells. It is particularly important in the context of cancer research, as abnormal PI3K activity can lead to uncontrolled cell division and tumor growth.
