The Emerging Roles of mTORC1 in Macromanaging Autophagy
Autophagy is a process of self-degradation that enables the cell to survive when faced with starvation or stressful conditions. The mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR), also known as the mammalian target of rapamycin, plays a critical role in ...

Alterations in arginine metabolism and β‐hydroxybutyrylation (Kbhb) modifications play a critical role in tumor progression. This study reveals valuable insights into arginine metabolism reprogramming involving the ARG1‐Kbhb/P300/SLC3A2 signaling axis and uncovers an effective therapy combining BHB with ARG1 inhibitor through conventional enzymatic and

mTORC1 in the orbitofrontal cortex promotes habitual alcohol seeking
The mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) plays an important role in dendritic translation and in learning and memory. We previously showed that heavy alcohol use activates mTORC1 in the orbitofrontal cortex (OFC) of rodents (Laguesse et al.,

mTORC1 and mTORC2 in Energy Homeostasis
Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the role of mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) and mammalian target of rapamycin complex 2 (mTORC2) in energy homeostasis. Energy homeostasis is the regulation of energy uptake, storage, and expenditure such that an organism maintains a balanced metabolic state.

Clinical discovery and the proposed underlying mechanism by how P. johnsonii ameliorated metabolic disorders. Abstract The gut bacterium Parabacteroides spp. is increasingly recognized for its therapeutic potential in treating metabolic disorders. However, the role of Parabacteroides johnsonii in metabolic disorders is never reported.

During nerve development, Schwann cells (SCs) build multilayered myelin sheaths around axons to accelerate nerve conduction. The mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) downstream of PI3K/AKT signaling lately emerged as a central anabolic ...
