AKT and TOR pathways are activated during DENV infection in a glucose-dependent manner. Aedes aegypti cells (CCL-125) were infected with DENV at a multiplicity of infection (MOI) of 1 with different concentrations of glucose. Total protein was collected 72 h after infection. TOR and AKT pathway activation and DENV protein (prM, E, NS1, and NS5) expression were determined via western blotting. Human GAPDH served as a loading control. Three biological cohorts were analyzed
