    Abstract An 86-year-old man was found with altered mental status, fever and aphasia. His physical exam revealed nuchal rigidity but no other meningeal signs. Because the patient's mental status was declining, he was intubated and placed in mechanical ventilation. His head CT scan was unremarkable, without evidence of mass effect. A lumbar puncture yielded cerebrospinal fluid that was remarkable for the presence of gram-positive cocci in pairs. His blood cultures showed gram-negative bacilli. Given the presence of these organisms, a polymicrobial infection was suspected. An abdomino pelvic CT scan showed a multi-septated abscess within the right hepatic lobe. CT-guided percutaneous drainage was performed and a specimen for culture obtained, which grew Klebsiella pneumoniae. After receiving intravenous antibiotics and supportive care, the patient showed clinical improvement. In this patient, there was a central nervous system infection secondary to bacteremia in the setting of an intrabdominal infection. The inquiring clinician should take note that whenever a polymicrobial infection is evidenced, more than one site of infection should be considered in the differential diagnosis.

    Abstract The phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3-kinase)-Akt-mTOR pathway is mutated at high frequency in human breast cancer, and this pathway is the focus of active drug discovery and clinical investigation. Trials of personalized cancer therapy seek to leverage knowledge of cancer gene mutations by using mutations to guide the choice of targeted therapies. At the same time, cancer genome sequencing studies are identifying low frequency variants of unknown significance in known cancer genes, as well as genes of unknown function. We have performed functional analysis of six non-hotspot AKT1 pleckstrin homology domain mutants identified in recent large-scale breast cancer sequencing studies. Three of these mutants cause constitutive activation of Akt1 in the absence of growth factors, leading to phosphorylation of downstream target proteins. Like the hotspot E17K mutation, these mutants confer constitutive membrane localization of Akt1. Finally, the same three mutants showed oncogenic activity in a cellular transformation assay. The other three mutants were inactive in all assays. These findings validate novel driver mutations in AKT1, and extend the number and type of mutations that activate the PI3-kinase pathway in human breast cancers.
