## Abstract The phosphatidylinositol 3β²βkinase (PI3K)/Akt pathway is often constitutively activated in malignant glioma cells, in many cases as a result of mutation of phosphatase and tensin homologue deleted on chromosome ten (PTEN), an endogenous inhibitor of Akt, which renders tumor cells resist
## Abstract In __de novo__ glioblastoma multiforme, loss of the tumour suppressor protein PTEN can coincide with the expression of a naturally occurring mutant epidermal growth factor receptor known as ΞEGFR. ΞEGFR signals constitutively via the phosphatidylinositol 3βkinase (PI3K)/protein kinase A
