The novel mTOR inhibitor RAD001 (Everolimus) induces antiproliferative effects in human pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor cells [PDF]
Background/Aim: Tumors exhibiting constitutively activated PI(3) K/Akt/mTOR signaling are hypersensitive to mTOR inhibitors such as RAD001 (everolimus) which is presently being investigated in clinical phase II trials in various tumor entities, including

Rapamycin-induced phosphaturia [PDF]
The mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) is known to stimulate a variety of transport mechanisms including the intestinal phosphate transporter NaPi-IIb. The present study was performed to elucidate whether mTOR similarly regulates the major renal tubular phosphate transporter NaPi-IIa.To this end, NaPi-IIa was expressed in Xenopus oocytes with or ...

Comparative global immune-related gene profiling of somatic cells, human pluripotent stem cells and their derivatives: implication for human lymphocyte proliferation. [PDF]
Human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs), including embryonic stem cells (ESCs) and induced PSCs (iPSCs), represent potentially unlimited cell sources for clinical applications. Previous studies have suggested that hPSCs may benefit from immune privilege and
