COVID 19 in a family with rare genetic disease of the nervous system
We present familial tuberous sclerosis (TS) case complicated by COVID-19. COVID-19 aggravates the course of TS and may lead to a fatal outcome. We review the role of mTORC1 (mechanistic/mammalian Target of Rapamycin Complex 1) in the development and ...

Cellular Uptake, Metabolism and Sensing of Long-Chain Fatty Acids
Fatty acids (FAs) are critical nutrients that regulate an organism’s health and development in mammal. Long-chain fatty acids (LCFAs) can be divided into saturated and unsaturated fatty acids, depending on whether the carbon chain contains at least 1 ...

Osteocyte TSC1 promotes sclerostin secretion to restrain osteogenesis in mice [PDF]
Osteocytes secrete the glycoprotein sclerostin to inhibit bone formation by osteoblasts, but how sclerostin production is regulated in osteocytes remains unclear.

Differential effects of selective inhibitors targeting the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway in acute lymphoblastic leukemia [PDF]
Purpose: Aberrant PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling has been linked to oncogenesis and therapy resistance in various malignancies including leukemias. In Philadelphia chromosome (Ph) positive leukemias, activation of PI3K by dysregulated BCR-ABL tyrosine kinase ...

Background In-stent restenosis hardly limits the therapeutic effect of the percutaneous vascular intervention. Although the restenosis is significantly ameliorated after the application of new drug-eluting stents, the incidence of restenosis remains at a

Survival of intracellular pathogens in response to mTORC1- or TRPML1-TFEB-induced xenophagy
Intracellular pathogens establish persistent infections by generating reservoirs that protect them from the action of antibiotics and the host immune response.

Cellular adaptation to stress is a crucial homeostatic process for survival, metabolism, physiology, and disease. Cells respond to stress stimuli (e.g., nutrient starvation, growth factor deprivation, hypoxia, low energy, etc.) by changing the activity ...

A mTORC1-mediated cyst(e)ine sensing mechanism governing GPX4 synthesis and ferroptosis
Ferroptosis is a cell death mechanism triggered by lipid peroxidation. Our recent study linked cyst(e)ine availability with glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) protein synthesis and ferroptosis mitigation via a Rag-mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 ...

Metabolic signaling directs the reciprocal lineage decisions of αβ and γδ T cells [PDF]
Wiring metabolic signaling circuits in thymocytes Cell differentiation is often accompanied by metabolic changes. Yang et al. report that generation of double-positive (DP) thymocytes from double-negative (DN) cells coincides with dynamic regulation of ...

The anti-hyperglycemic drug, Metformin, is effective in treating early stages of diabetes and has been associated with a 37% decrease in cancer incidence. While the precise mechanisms for the anti-cancer effects of Metformin remain to be elucidated, this
