The Emerging Roles of mTORC1 in Macromanaging Autophagy

open access: yesCancers, 2019
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 ...

Abnormal β‐Hydroxybutyrylation Modification of ARG1 Drives Reprogramming of Arginine Metabolism to Promote the Progression of Colorectal Cancer

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
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

open access: yeseLife, 2019
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 coordinates the autophagy and apoptosis signaling in articular chondrocytes in osteoarthritic temporomandibular joint

open access: yesAutophagy, 2019
A switch from autophagy to apoptosis is implicated in chondrocytes during the osteoarthritis (OA) progression with currently unknown mechanism(s). In this study we utilized a flow fluid shear stress (FFSS) model in cultured chondrocytes and a unilateral ...

mTORC1 and mTORC2 in Energy Homeostasis

open access: yes, 2010
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.

The Probiotic Parabacteroides johnsonii Ameliorates Metabolic Disorders Through Promoting BCAAs to BSCFAs Conversion

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
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.

Multiple lines of inhibitory feedback on AKT kinase in Schwann cells lacking TSC1/2 hint at distinct functions of mTORC1 and AKT in nerve development

open access: yesCommunicative & Integrative Biology, 2018
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 ...
