Estradiol promotes pentose phosphate pathway addiction and cell survival via reactivation of Akt in mTORC1 hyperactive cells [PDF]
Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) is a female-predominant interstitial lung disease that can lead to respiratory failure. LAM cells typically have inactivating TSC2 mutations, leading to mTORC1 activation.

Extrapulmonary manifestation of lymphangioleiomyomatosis.
A 31-year-old female patient presented at the department of hematology with painful nodal swellings in the neck region for 2 months. Four weeks before presentation, she had an airway infection during which the nodes were swollen. Since 10 days she suffered from dyspnea, a dry cough and a burning ache in the chest.

Lymphangioleiomyomatosis: a clinical review
Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) is a diffuse cystic lung disease. There are two main types of LAM: sporadic, and LAM associated with the tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC), which is caused by mutations in the TSC1 and TSC2 genes.

Distinct peripheral pro‐inflammatory profile associated with tuberous sclerosis complex and epilepsy
Abstract Objective Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is a monogenetic disorder associated with sustained mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) activation, leading to heterogeneous clinical manifestations. Epilepsy and renal angiomyolipoma are the most important causes of morbidity in adult people with TSC (pwTSC).

Incidental Primary Angiomyolipoma of Ovary: A Rare Case Report and Literature Review
ABSTRACT Primary angiomyolipomas of the ovary which are not associated with genetical systemic diseases, particularly tuberous sclerosis, are extremely rare and are more likely to pose diagnostic challenges. This tumor, particularly of epithelioid variant, is more likely to be malignant and can carry a high possibility of metastasizing.

The efficacy and safety of pharmacological treatments for lymphangioleiomyomatosis
Background Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) is a rare, low-grade multisystem neoplastic disease . Most LAM patients are at a high risk of losing lung function at an accelerated rate and developing progressive dyspnea.
