Assessment of the effects of the TSC1 Y948N, I954K and L963S variants on TORC1 signaling.

open access: yes, 2014
The TSC1 variants were coexpressed in transfected HEK 293T cells with TSC2 and S6K. TSC2, TSC1, S6K and T389-phosphorylated S6K (T389) signals were estimated by immunoblotting.

Flies lacking Akt phosphorylation sites on Tsc1 and Tsc2 are viable and normal in size.

open access: yes, 2013
(A) Expression levels of myc-Tsc1 in fly lines homozygous for the Tsc129 mutation, rescued by ubiquitous expression of Tsc1WT, Tsc1S533A or Tsc1S533D, or flies homozygous for both the Tsc129 and Tsc2192 mutations rescued to viability by ubiquitous ...

Enterococcus faecalis Extracellular Vesicles Deliver the Bacterial GTPase Obg to Hijack mTOR Signalling in Hepatocellular Carcinoma

open access: yesJournal of Extracellular Vesicles, Volume 15, Issue 6, June 2026.
E. faecalis is enriched in HCC tissue and can promote liver tumourigenesis by activating mTOR signalling pathway. Obg derived from E. faecalis extracellular vesicles (EVs) is a GTPase physically interacts with mTOR, and acts as an interkingdom activator of mTOR. EF‐Obg expression level in HCC tissue correlates with poor prognosis in HCC patients.

From 2D to 3D Bioprinted In Vitro Breast Cancer Model: A Comparative Study of Proliferation, Tissue Structure, and mTOR Signaling

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 6, June 2026.
A 3D bioprinted breast cancer model was created to more accurately reproduce in vivo tumor characteristics compared to conventional 2D cultures. Distinct cell adhesion patterns, reduced mTOR signaling, and altered drug responses were observed under 3D conditions.

Flies lacking Akt phosphorylation sites on both Tsc1 and Tsc2 are slightly lean.

open access: yes, 2013
Triglyceride levels normalized to total body protein for Tsc129 homozygotes rescued by ubiquitous expression of Tsc1WT (“WT”), Tsc1S533A (“S533A”) or Tsc1S533D(“S533D”), or flies homozygous for both the Tsc129 and Tsc2192 mutations rescued to viability ...

The role of TSC1 and TSC2 proteins in neuronal axons

open access: yesMolecular Psychiatry
Tuberous Sclerosis Complex 1 and 2 proteins, TSC1 and TSC2 respectively, participate in a multiprotein complex with a crucial role for the proper development and function of the nervous system. This complex primarily acts as an inhibitor of the mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) kinase, and mutations in either TSC1 or TSC2 cause a ...

The Dual Role of Autophagy in Cancer: Mechanisms and Therapeutic Strategies

open access: yesMedComm – Oncology, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
Autophagy is a conserved cellular process degrading dysfunctional organelles and protein aggregates to maintain cell homeostasis, and it exhibits context‐dependent duality in cancer. Autophagy functions as a critical tumor‐suppressive mechanism by preventing DNA damage and mutation during tumor initiation.

Functional assessment of TSC1 missense variants identified in individuals with tuberous sclerosis complex

open access: yes, 2012
Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is an autosomal dominant disorder caused by mutations in the TSC1 or TSC2 genes. The TSC1 and TSC2 gene products, TSC1 and TSC2, form a complex that inhibits the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) complex 1 (TORC1 ...

Identification of a complex intrachromosomal inverted insertion in the long arm of chromosome 9 as a cause of tuberous sclerosis complex in a Korean family

open access: yesMolecular Genetics & Genomic Medicine
Background Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is an autosomal dominant multisystem disorder, caused by a loss‐of‐function of either TSC1 or TSC2 gene. However, in 10%–15% TSC patients there is no pathogenic variant identified in either TSC1 or TSC2 genes ...

Oxidative Stress in the Tumor Immune Microenvironment: Mechanisms and Therapeutic Perspectives

open access: yesMedComm – Oncology, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
Oxidative stress is involved in several key processes in cancer, including redox regulation, DNA damage, post‐translational modifications, transcriptional regulation, epigenetic modifications, metabolic reprogramming, cell death, and immune modulation. These mechanisms collectively influence tumor progression, immune evasion, and therapeutic responses,
