Background and purpose:
Epithelial injury contributes to lung pathogenesis. Our work and that of others have identified the phosphoinositide‐3 kinase (PI3K)/Akt pathway as a vital component of survival in lung epithelia. Therefore, we hypothesized that pharmacological inhibition of PTEN, a major suppressor of this pathway, would enhance wound cl...
