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.

Objective: Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is an autosomal dominant neurocutaneous syndrome. TSC arises from mutations in either TSC1, at 9q34, or TSC2, at 16p13.3. Skin lesions, such as hypomelanotic macules, facial angiofibromas, shagreen patches, and

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.

Phosphorylation and Functional Inactivation of TSC2 by Erk [PDF]
SummaryTuberous sclerosis (TSC) is a tumor syndrome caused by mutation in TSC1 or TSC2 genes. TSC tumorigenesis is not always accompanied by loss of heterozygosity (LOH).

Single giant mediastinal rhabdomyoma as a sole manifestation of TSC in foetus
Background: Presence of multiple cardiac rhabdomyomas is one of the major features of Tuberous sclerosis (TSC), but isolated progressing single giant rhabdomyoma is very rare and not typical of TSC.

BACKGROUND: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a leading cause of cancer-related death globally. Mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) is frequently up-regulated in HCC and plays an important role in HCC tumorigenesis.

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 ...
