Iron is an essential nutrient for immune cells and microbes, therefore the control of its homeostasis plays a decisive role for infections. Moreover, iron affects metabolic pathways by modulating the translational expression of the key tricarboxylic acid

Cellular antiseizure mechanisms of everolimus in pediatric tuberous sclerosis complex, cortical dysplasia, and non-mTOR-mediated etiologies. [PDF]
The present study was designed to examine the potential cellular antiseizure mechanisms of everolimus, a mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway blocker, in pediatric epilepsy cases. Cortical tissue samples obtained from pediatric patients (n

Modeling renal cancer in the mouse has been challenging. We recently showed that upregulation of mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) in a restricted segment of the renal tubule leads to downregulation of the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle ...

Molecular mechanisms of pain regulation in patients with osteoarthritis
Objective: to study the mechanisms determining the level of pain on the basis of an analysis of the expression profiles of the genes involved in joint destruction, inflammation, and metabolic regulation in the blood of patients with osteoarthritis (OA ...

Phosphatidic acid: a lipid regulator of the Hippo pathway
The Hippo pathway, a signaling pathway highly conserved across species, plays a crucial role in organ size control and cancer suppression. Our recent study shows that phosphatidic acid can regulate the Hippo pathway through a physical lipid-protein ...

Mammalian EAK-7 activates alternative mTOR signaling to regulate cell proliferation and migration. [PDF]
Nematode EAK-7 (enhancer-of-akt-1-7) regulates dauer formation and controls life span; however, the function of the human ortholog mammalian EAK-7 (mEAK-7) is unknown.

Intranasal rapamycin ameliorates Alzheimer-like cognitive decline in a mouse model of Down syndrome [PDF]
Background: Down syndrome (DS) individuals, by the age of 40s, are at increased risk to develop Alzheimer-like dementia, with deposition in brain of senile plaques and neurofibrillary tangles.

The ubiquitin-editing enzyme A20 controls NK cell homeostasis through regulation of mTOR activity and TNF [PDF]
The ubiquitin-editing enzyme A20 is a well-known regulator of immune cell function and homeostasis. In addition, A20 protects cells from death in an ill-defined manner.

Overcoming mTOR resistance mutations with a new-generation mTOR inhibitor [PDF]
Precision medicines exert selective pressure on tumour cells that leads to the preferential growth of resistant subpopulations, necessitating the development of next-generation therapies to treat the evolving cancer. The PIK3CA-AKT-mTOR pathway is one of the most commonly activated pathways in human cancers, which has led to the development of small ...
