Regulation of mTORC1 Signaling by pH
Acidification of the cytoplasm and the extracellular environment is associated with many physiological and pathological conditions, such as intense exercise, hypoxia and tumourigenesis. Acidification affects important cellular functions including protein synthesis, growth, and proliferation.

Treatment of Primary Aldosteronism with mTORC1 Inhibitors [PDF]
Abstract Context Mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) activity is often increased in the adrenal cortex of patients with primary aldosteronism (PA), and mTORC1 inhibition decreases aldosterone production in adrenocortical cells, suggesting the mTORC1 pathway as a target for treatment of PA.

G3BP1 Succinylation at K413 is Critical for Cardiac Function by Modulating PI3K‐AKT‐mTOR Signal Axis
Schematic illustrating the impact of G3BP1 succinylation at K413 on cardiac function. In the healthy human heart, G3BP1 succinylation maintains homeostatic mTOR signaling. In patients with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) and heart failure (HF), G3BP1 de‐succinylation induces RagA expression and disrupts the binding of the TSC1/2 complex, leading to the ...

A Wacky Bridge to mTORC1 Dimerization [PDF]
The activity of the mTORC1 protein complex depends on multiple metabolic inputs that regulate dimerization, recruitment to the lysosome, and activation. In this issue of Developmental Cell, David-Morrison et al. (2016) show that the Drosophila protein Wacky and its mammalian counterpart WAC act as adaptors in the process of mTORC1 dimerization.

mTOR (mammalian target of rapamycin), a protein kinase highly conserved, is the catalytic subunit of two complexes, mTORC1 and mTORC2. These complexes are regulated by amino acids availability, by insulin and growth factors signaling pathways. Thus, mTORC1 and mTORC2 complexes are essential sensors of the cellular nutrient and energy levels in living ...

T Cell Exhaustion in Cancer Immunotherapy: Heterogeneity, Mechanisms, and Therapeutic Opportunities
T cell exhaustion limits immunotherapy efficacy. This article delineates its progression from stem‐like to terminally exhausted states, governed by persistent antigen, transcription factors, epigenetics, and metabolism. It maps the exhaustion landscape in the TME and proposes integrated reversal strategies, providing a translational roadmap to overcome

GPCR signaling inhibits mTORC1 via PKA phosphorylation of Raptor
The mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) regulates cell growth, metabolism, and autophagy. Extensive research has focused on pathways that activate mTORC1 like growth factors and amino acids; however, much less is known about signaling cues ...

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC)‐derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) enrich the metabolic enzyme ATP‐citrate lyase (ACLY). EV‐transferred ACLY enhances palmitate biosynthesis, increases the S‐palmitoylation and stability of multiple immune checkpoint proteins, augments the cellular immunosuppressive activity, and ultimately accelerates the malignant ...
