PIKFYVE-dependent regulation of MTORC1 and TFEB
TFEB (transcription factor EB) is essential for the upregulation of gene expression required for macroautophagy/autophagy and lysosomal function. Under nutrient-rich conditions, TFEB is inactivated by MTOR (mechanistic target of rapamycin kinase) complex

p38 regulates the tumor suppressor PDCD4 via the TSC-mTORC1 pathway
Programmed cell death protein 4 (PDCD4) exerts critical functions as tumor suppressor and in immune cells to regulate inflammatory pro-cesses. The phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) promotes degradation of PDCD4 via mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (

Molecular brakes regulating mTORC1 activation in skeletal muscle following synergist ablation [PDF]
The goal of the current work was to profile positive (mTORC1 activation, autocrine/paracrine growth factors) and negative [AMPK, unfolded protein response (UPR)] pathways that might regulate overload-induced mTORC1 (mTOR complex 1) activation with the ...

Suppressing mTORC1 on the lysosome [PDF]
The mechanistic target of rapamycin, mTOR, is a protein kinase that integrates environmental and nutritional inputs into regulation of cell growth and metabolism. Key outputs of mTOR signalling occur from the lysosome membrane in the form of the multi‐subunit mTOR complex 1 (mTORC1), which phosphorylates multiple targets. While class I phosphoinositide

A Novel Combination Therapy Approach Targeting STAT3 and Autophagy in Glioblastoma
The aggressive brain cancer glioblastoma (GBM) is notoriously resistant to radiotherapy and chemotherapy, which drives tumor recurrence and relapse. GBM cells are highly addicted to STAT3 (signal transducer and activator of transcription 3) and STAT3 ...

Impairing the production of ribosomal RNA activates mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 signalling and downstream translation factors [PDF]
Ribosome biogenesis is a key process for maintaining protein synthetic capacity in dividing or growing cells, and requires coordinated production of ribosomal proteins and ribosomal RNA (rRNA), including the processing of the latter.

Regulation of adiposity by mTORC1 [PDF]
ABSTRACT Obesity is characterized by an excessive increase in the adipose tissue mass, and is associated with higher incidence of several chronic metabolic diseases, such as type 2 diabetes. Therefore, its increasing prevalence is a public health concern, and it is important to better understand its etiology to develop new therapeutic strategies ...

p16: cycling off the beaten path
p16INK4A (hereafter called p16) is a faithful cellular ally in the fight against tumorigenesis. Although its canonical pathway through retinoblastoma (RB) is well delineated, RB-independent functions for p16 are beginning to emerge. Here we summarize non-

Autophagy Function and Regulation in Kidney Disease
Autophagy is a dynamic process by which intracellular damaged macromolecules and organelles are degraded and recycled for the synthesis of new cellular components.

RETREG3/FAM134C phosphorylation by CSNK2 regulates reticulophagy during starvation
Starvation is the most potent physiological inducer of autophagy, the catabolic process which degrades unessential cytosolic components to sustain cellular homeostasis and survival.
