Abstract

Phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)-dependent signaling has been placed at the heart of conserved biochemical mechanisms that facilitate cell migration of leukocytes in response to a range of chemoattractant stimuli. This review assesses the evidence for and against PI3K-dependent mechanisms of T lymphocyte migration and whether pharmacological targeting of PI3K isoforms is likely to offer potential benefit for T cell mediated pathologies.
