Structural insights of AKT and its activation mechanism for drug development.
Review in Molecular diversity, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 19 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
AKT1, a serine/threonine kinase, is pivotal in signaling and regulating cell survival, proliferation, and metabolism. This review focuses on the structural insights and the essential features required for its active conformation. AKT belongs to the AGC kinase group and has three isoforms: AKT1, AKT2, and AKT3. AKT has three functional regions: PH domain, kinase domain, and hydrophobic motif. AKT1 activation involves intricate conformational changes, including transitions in the αC-in, DFG-in, G-loop, activation loop, and PH domain out, S-spine and R-spine formation, as well as phosphorylation at Thr 308 and Ser 473, which enable AKT1 to adopt active conformation. The analysis highlights the limitations of the AlphaFold-predicted AKT1 structure, which lacks key elements of the active state, including ATP, magnesium ion coordination, phosphatidylinositol-(1,3,4,5)-tetraphosphate, substrate peptide, and phosphorylation at Thr 308 and Ser 473. This study underscores the necessity of these features for stabilizing the kinase domain and facilitating efficient substrate phosphorylation. By consolidating structural insights and activation mechanisms, this review aims to inform the development of computational models and targeted therapeutics for AKT1 activators in diseases such as hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury, cerebral ischemia, acute hepatic failure, subarachnoid hemorrhage, and alzheimer's disease.
