Specific inhibition of PI3K p110δ inhibits CSF‐1‐induced macrophage spreading and invasive capacity by Mouchemore, KA, Sampaio, N, Murrey, MW, Stanley, ER, Lannutti, BJ, Pixley, FJ

“…Here we show that pY721‐based signaling is necessary for CSF‐1‐stimulated PtdIns(3,4,5)P production. While primary bone marrow‐derived macrophages and the immortalized bone marrow‐derived macrophage cell line M−/−.WT express all three class IA PI3K isoforms, p110δ predominates in the cell line. …”
