Abstract: Pharmacological inhibition of phosphoinositol 3 kinase (PI3K) and partial deficiency of phosphoinositide dependent kinase PDK1 have previously been shown to enhance basal gastric acid secretion. PI3K/PDK1 dependent signaling involves activation of protein kinase B/Akt, which may thus be similarly involved in the regulation of gastric acid secretion. To test that hypothesis, gastric acid secretion was determined in isolated glands from gene targeted mice lacking functional Akt2 (akt2-/-) or from thei…
