GSK3-mediated raptor phosphorylation supports amino acid-dependent Q2 mTORC1-directed signalling [PDF]
The mammalian or mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) complex 1 (mTORC1) is a ubiquitously expressed multimeric protein kinase complex that integrates nutrient and growth factor signals for the co-ordinated regulation of cellular metabolism and cell ...

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 ...

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 ...

Rapamycin induces transactivation of the EGFR and increases cell survival. [PDF]
The mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling network regulates cell growth, proliferation and cell survival. Deregulated activation of this pathway is a common event in diverse human diseases such as cancers, cardiac hypertrophy, vascular ...

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 ...

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.

Loss of ATF3 exacerbates liver damage through the activation of mTOR/p70S6K/ HIF-1α signaling pathway in liver inflammatory injury. [PDF]
Activating transcription factor 3 (ATF3) is a stress-induced transcription factor that plays important roles in regulating immune and metabolic homeostasis.
