Abstract
To validate the new method, U87MG cancer cells were serum starved and treated with PDGF to stimulate PIP3 biosynthesis in the presence or absence of the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) inhibitor LY294002. Results generated with the LC/MS method were in excellent agreement with results generated using [33P] phosphate radiolabeled U87MG cells and anion exchange chromatography analysis, a well validated method for measuring PIP3. To demonstrate the usefulness of the new method, we generated reproducible IC50 data for several well-characterized PI3K small molecule inhibitors using a U87MG cell-based assay as well as showing PIP3 can be measured from additional cancer cell lines. Together, our results demonstrate this novel method is sensitive, reproducible and can be used to directly measure PIP3 without radiolabeling or complex lipid derivatization.
