TSC1/TSC2 signaling in the CNS [PDF]
Over the past several years, the study of a hereditary tumor syndrome, tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC), has shed light on the regulation of cellular proliferation and growth. TSC is an autosomal dominant disorder that is due to inactivating mutations in TSC1 or TSC2 and characterized by benign tumors (hamartomas) involving multiple organ systems.

Hypo-Expression of Tuberin Promotes Adenomyosis via the mTOR1-Autophagy Axis
Adenomyosis (AM) is a disease in which endometrial tissue invades the myometrium and has a 10–60% prevalence in reproductive-aged women. TSC2 regulates autophagy via mTOR1 signalling in colorectal cancer and endometrial carcinoma.

Loss of myeloid Tsc2 predisposes to angiotensin II-induced aortic aneurysm formation in mice
Rationale Genetic studies have proved the involvement of Tuberous sclerosis complex subunit 2 (Tsc2) in aortic aneurysm. However, the exact role of macrophage Tsc2 in the vascular system remains unclear.

Regulation of the mammalian target of rapamycin complex 2 (mTORC2) [PDF]
The growth controlling mammalian Target of Rapamycin (mTOR) is a conserved Ser/Thr kinase found in two structurally and functionally distinct complexes, mTORC1 and mTORC2.

Screen for chemical modulators of autophagy reveals novel therapeutic inhibitors of mTORC1 signaling [PDF]
BackgroundMammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) is a protein kinase that relays nutrient availability signals to control numerous cellular functions including autophagy, a process of cellular self-eating activated by nutrient depletion ...

Tsc2 shapes olfactory bulb granule cell molecular and morphological characteristics
Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (TSC) is a neurodevelopmental disorder caused by mutations that inactivate TSC1 or TSC2. Hamartin and tuberin are encoded by TSC1 and TSC2 which form a GTPase activating protein heteromer that inhibits the Rheb GTPase from ...

Akt phosphorylates both Tsc1 and Tsc2 in Drosophila, but neither phosphorylation is required for normal animal growth. [PDF]
Akt, an essential component of the insulin pathway, is a potent inducer of tissue growth. One of Akt's phosphorylation targets is Tsc2, an inhibitor of the anabolic kinase TOR. This could account for part of Akt's growth promoting activity.
