Abstract

<p>Supplementary Figure S1. Phosphorylated-Akt staining in human vascular tumors. Immunohistochemical stains for phospho-Akt (S473) in normal human skin and human vascular tumors. Representative areas of "low" and "high" levels of staining within a tumor are shown. Arrows in normal skin indicate immuno-reactive blood vessels. Scale bar, 100 μm. Supplementary Figure S2. Isolation of primary infantile hemangioma endothelial cells, and effects of Akt1 knockdown on vascular tumor cell apoptosis. Supplementary Figure S3. Expression levels of Akt1, Akt2 and Akt3 in double transgenic myrAkt1 mice, and the development of hemangioma in myrAkt1 skin grafts in syngeneic immunocompetent FVB recipients. Supplementary Figure S4. Akt1, Akt2 and Akt3 expression in human vascular tumors. Supplementary Figure S5. Akt3 expression in vascular tumor cell lines. Supplementary Figure S6. Knockdown of Akt1, Akt2 and Akt3 in tumor cells, and the effects of loss of Akt1, Akt2 and Akt3 on vascular tumor growth in vivo. Supplementary Figure S7. Loss of S6-Kinase rescues the effects of Akt3 on tumor cell migration. Supplementary Figure S8. Loss of Rictor increases S6K pathway activation. Supplementary Table S1. In vitro properties of the S6K inhibitor LY2584702. *Kinases related to p70 S6K. Supplementary Table S2. Sequences of lentiviral short-hairpin RNA (shRNA) constructs.</p>
