Phosphoinositide 3-kinase gamma in T cell biology and disease therapy.

Abstract

Phosphoinositide 3-kinase gamma (PI3Kγ) kinase activity is important for its signaling functions in T cell development, activation, differentiation, and trafficking. Protection of PI3Kγ knockout mice from disease in multiple autoimmune models suggests that targeting PI3Kγ alone, or in combination with PI3Kδ, could be a promising approach to disease therapy.
