    (A–C) Representative responses of cells to aminergic agonists in control and in the presence of wortmannin or PI828. Unlike PI828 (10 – 20 μM), wortmannin (10 μM) did not affect Ca 2+ transients elicited by 1 μM ACh in HEK-293 cells (A), 2 μM histamine in C6 cells (B), and 1 nM serotonin in CHO/5HT 2C cells (C).

    Techniques Used:

    (A) Experimental protocol timing. The applications of wortmannin, PI828, and insulin during recordings are indicated by the line segments above the time axis; the moments of image capturing are indicated by the arrows. (B, C) Representative sequential images of HEK/R-GECO1/PH(Akt)-Venus cells were obtained with SIM-microscopy at the moments indicated in (A). The left panels, control images of two cells obtained right before drug application demonstrate the virtually homogeneous distribution of PH(Akt)-Venus fluorescence over cell bodies. The middle panels, the cell stimulation with 100 nM insulin negligibly affected sensor distribution in the presence of 10 μM wortmannin (B) or 30 μM PI828 (C). The weak decrease in cell fluorescence was presumably arisen from photobleaching. The right panels, after the rinse of PI3K inhibitors, 100 nM insulin initiated a drop in the fluorescence of the cell cytosol and the appearance of detectable stripe-like fluorescent zones (arrows in the right panels), the phenomenon suggesting the insulin-induced accumulation of the PH(Akt)-Venus sensor in the plasmalemma.

    Techniques Used:

    Snapshots are taken from representative MD trajectories at 25, 50, 75, and 100 ns. The MD simulations for 4-DAMP (A), wortmannin (B), and PI828 (C), started from the conformations shown in , respectively. The compounds are shown as spheres colored according to element (carbon – cyan, orange, and yellow in 4-DAMP, wortmannin, and PI828, correspondingly; nitrogen – blue; oxygen – red; hydrogen – white). As demonstrated, 4-DAMP and wortmannin did not leave the orthosteric site and the vestibule, respectively, within 100 ns. At the same time, PI828 was capable of moving from its docking-predicted location in the vestibule towards the orthosteric site already after 25 ns.

    Figure Lengend Snippet: Snapshots are taken from representative MD trajectories at 25, 50, 75, and 100 ns. The MD simulations for 4-DAMP (A), wortmannin (B), and PI828 (C), started from the conformations shown in , respectively. The compounds are shown as spheres colored according to element (carbon – cyan, orange, and yellow in 4-DAMP, wortmannin, and PI828, correspondingly; nitrogen – blue; oxygen – red; hydrogen – white). As demonstrated, 4-DAMP and wortmannin did not leave the orthosteric site and the vestibule, respectively, within 100 ns. At the same time, PI828 was capable of moving from its docking-predicted location in the vestibule towards the orthosteric site already after 25 ns.

The left panels, control images of two cells obtained right before drug application demonstrate the virtually homogeneous distribution of PH(Akt)-Venus fluorescence over cell bodies. The middle panels, the cell stimulation with 100 nM insulin negligibly affected sensor distribution in the presence of 10 μM wortmannin (B) or 30 μM PI828 (C). The weak decrease in cell fluorescence was presumably arisen from photobleaching. The right panels, after the rinse of PI3K inhibitors, 100 nM insulin initiated a drop in the fluorescence of the cell cytosol and the appearance of detectable stripe-like fluorescent zones (arrows in the right panels), the phenomenon suggesting the insulin-induced accumulation of the PH(Akt)-Venus sensor in the plasmalemma.
