mTOR inhibitors: An overview [PDF]

open access: yesLiver Transplantation, 2001
Inhibitors of the mammalian target of rapamycin are a new class of immunosuppressants. In contrast to other macrolides, such as tacrolimus and cyclosporine A, they do not inhibit calcineurin and thus signal I of T-cell activation.

PAK1 activation drives divergent resistance mechanisms to aromatase inhibition and tamoxifen in a luminal: A breast cancer model

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Breast cancer remains a major cause of cancer death in women, frequently developing endocrine therapy resistance. This study demonstrates that upregulated p21‐activated kinase 1 (PAK1) activity drives resistance to tamoxifen and long‐term estrogen deprivation in ER+ breast cancer models.

A conditional mouse model for the characterization of mTORC1 function in muscle and brain [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The Ser/Thr kinase mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) regulates cell growth in response to extracellular stimulation with growth factors and to intracellular factors that sense the nutritional and the energy state of the cell.

mTOR Pathway and mTOR Inhibitors in Cancer Therapy [PDF]

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, 2011
The latest in the series of monographs Cancer Drug Discovery and Development is mTOR Pathway and mTOR Inhibitors in Cancer Therapy. Rapamycin was first employed as an antifungal agent in humans and named for the Polynesians (Papa Nui) who inhabited Easter Island, where it was isolated from the bacteria Streptomyces hygroscopidcus.

PANoptosis in the pathogenesis of myelodysplastic syndromes

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
PANoptosis, a combination of three types of programmed cell death, is mediated by a large protein complex called a PANoptosome. In healthy bone marrow hematopoietic cells, PANoptosis is restricted by inhibitory signaling. In MDS, bone marrow cells become sensitive to the PANoptotic stimuli due to the aberrant inactivation of inhibitory signaling or ...

mTOR [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The mechanistic target of Rapamycin (mTOR) is a ubiquitously-conserved serine/threonine kinase, which has a central function in integrating growth signals and orchestrating their physiologic effects on cellular level. mTOR is the core component of differently composed signaling complexes that differ in protein composition and molecular targets.

Blood‐based proteomic profiling reveals context‐dependent changes in BCL2‐associated signaling during taxane therapy in breast cancer patients

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Chemotherapy side effects significantly impact cancer survivors' quality of life. Using protein levels in blood samples from breast cancer patients before and after 12 weeks of taxane treatment, we detected treatment‐dependent changes in calcium signaling and aging pathways associated with cancer recurrence.

Identifying gene expression signatures for risk stratification of postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy in colorectal cancer

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
A novel signature integrating genome‐wide analysis with clinical factors predicts recurrence in stage II colorectal cancer and enables a new risk stratification to guide postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy. Clinical risk stratification for postoperative recurrence in patients with pathological stage II (pStage II) colorectal cancer (CRC) is essential ...

New insights into the "in vivo" and "in vitro" functions of mammalian TOR complex 2 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Target of rapamycin (TOR) is the main controller of cell growth and metabolism in response to nutrients, growth factors and the cellular energy status. TOR is a serine/threonine kinase conserved from yeast to mammals and is found in two functionally and

Aquaporin‐3 and aquaporin‐5 impact the development of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma spheroids

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Schematic representation of the role of aquaporin‐3 (AQP3) and aquaporin‐5 (AQP5) in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Both proteins are upregulated in PDAC and are associated with tumor progression and metastatic potential. Silencing AQP3 or AQP5 in PDAC spheroids results in decreased diameter, area, and overall growth, underscoring their key ...
