This exciting study provides the first evidence that the beta isoform of phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3Kbeta) plays an essential, non-redundant role in the efficient activation of mouse neutrophils by IgG-containing immune complexes.
Neutrophils detect these immune complexes through Fc receptors for IgG (FcgammaRs). Predictab PI3Kbeta...
