Abstract
Inhibition of the PI3K/Akt pathway does not increase the sensitivity of neuroblastoma cell lines to TRAIL-induced apoptosis. Neuroblastoma is unique in that activation of the PI3K/Akt pathway is either not essential to its TRAIL resistance or counteracted because of the multiple repetitive pathways of TRAIL resistance.
