mTOR inhibitors response and mTOR pathway in pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors [PDF]
Medical therapy of pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (P-NET) may take advantage of Everolimus treatment. However, the extent of therapeutic response cannot be predicted. This study was aimed to identify the possible predictive markers of response to Everolimus in P-NET. We found that Everolimus reduced the cell viability and induced apoptosis in primary

Expression of mTOR and downstream signalling components in the JEG-3 and BeWo human placental choriocarcinoma cell lines [PDF]
This article has been made available through the Brunel Open Access Publishing Fund.Emerging data suggest that nutritional status and body weight are related to reproductive function, and nutrient imbalances during pregnancy lead to changes in the ...

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 ...

Caffeine affects the biological responses of human hematopoietic cells of myeloid lineage via downregulation of the mTOR pathway and xanthine oxidase activity [PDF]
Correction of human myeloid cell function is crucial for the prevention of inflammatory and allergic reactions as well as leukaemia progression. Caffeine, a naturally occurring food component, is known to display anti-inflammatory effects which have ...

The novel mTOR inhibitor RAD001 (Everolimus) induces antiproliferative effects in human pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor cells [PDF]
Background/Aim: Tumors exhibiting constitutively activated PI(3) K/Akt/mTOR signaling are hypersensitive to mTOR inhibitors such as RAD001 (everolimus) which is presently being investigated in clinical phase II trials in various tumor entities, including

adaptive capabilities of the pi3k/akt/mtor pathway in acute myeloid leukemia revealed by the use of selective inhibitors [PDF]
Because of its aberrant activation, the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway represents a pharmacological target in blast cells from patients with acute myelogenous leukemia (AML).
