Tuberous Sclerosis Complex 1–Mechanistic Target of Rapamycin Complex 1 Signaling Determines Brown-to-White Adipocyte Phenotypic Switch [PDF]

open access: bronzeDiabetes, 2014
Interconversion of white and brown adipocytes occurs between anabolic and catabolic states. The molecular mechanism regulating this phenotypic switch remains largely unknown. This study explores the role of tuberous sclerosis complex 1 (TSC1)–mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling in the conversion of brown to white adipose tissue (WAT).

Oncogenic mutations in adenomatous polyposis coli (Apc) activate mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) in mice and zebrafish [PDF]

open access: yesDisease Models & Mechanisms, 2014
Truncating mutations in adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) are strongly linked to colorectal cancers. APC is a negative regulator of the Wnt pathway and constitutive Wnt activation mediated by enhanced Wnt–β-catenin target gene activation is believed to be

Mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 signaling regulates cell proliferation, cell survival, and differentiation in regenerating zebrafish fins. [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Dev Biol, 2014
The mechanistic target of rapamycin complex1 (mTORC1) signaling pathway has been implicated in functions of multicellular processes, including cell growth and metabolism. Although recent reports showed that many signaling pathways, including Activin, Bmp, Fgf, sonic hedgehog, Insulin-like growth factor (IGF), Notch, retinoic acid, and Wnt, are ...

Mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 is critical for invariant natural killer T-cell development and effector function. [PDF]

open access: yesProc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 2014
Significance The mechanistic or mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) is an evolutionarily conserved serine/threonine kinase that integrates various environmental signals/cues to regulate cell growth, proliferation, metabolism, and survival. The promyelocytic leukemia zinc-finger transcription factor (PLZF) is known to be critical

Mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1)-mediated phosphorylation is governed by competition between substrates for interaction with raptor. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Biol Chem, 2013
In this study, the interaction of mTORC1 with its downstream targets p70S6K1 and 4E-BP1 was evaluated in both mouse liver and mouse embryonic fibroblasts following combined disruption of the genes encoding 4E-BP1 and 4E-BP2. Phosphorylation of p70S6K1 was dramatically elevated in the livers of mice lacking 4E-BP1 and 4E-BP2 following feeding-induced ...
