Mammalian Target of Rapamycin Complex 1 (mTORC1) Enhances Bortezomib-induced Death in Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (TSC)-null Cells by a c-MYC-dependent Induction of the Unfolded Protein Response [PDF]
Many factors, including duration and intensity of the unfolded protein response (UPR), dictate whether cells will adapt to endoplasmic reticulum stress or undergo apoptosis. In tuberous sclerosis (TSC), elevation of mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) activity has been proposed to compound the induction of UPR transcription factors ATF4 ...

Tuberous Sclerosis Complex in a 17-month-old: A Case Report
Tuberous sclerosis complex is a rare autosomal dominant genetic disorder that affects multiple organ systems, primarily affecting the central nervous system. It develops with a pathogenic mutation in tumour suppressor genes i.e.

Deficiency in pulmonary surfactant proteins in mice with fatty acid binding protein 4‐Cre‐mediated knockout of the tuberous sclerosis complex 1 gene [PDF]
New findings What is the central question of this study?Does tuberous sclerosis complex 1–mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signalling regulate the synthesis of surfactant proteins A and B and, if so, can this contribute to the postnatal death of Fabp4‐Tsc1cKO mice?

Many biological processes involve the mechanistic/mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1). Thus, the challenge of deciphering mTORC1-mediated functions during normal and pathological states in the central nervous system is challenging. Because mTORC1 is at the core of translation, we have investigated mTORC1 function in global and regional ...

mTOR Hyperactivation by Ablation of Tuberous Sclerosis Complex 2 in the Mouse Heart Induces Cardiac Dysfunction with the Increased Number of Small Mitochondria Mediated through the Down-Regulation of Autophagy. [PDF]
Mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) is a key regulator of cell growth, proliferation and metabolism. mTORC1 regulates protein synthesis positively and autophagy negatively. Autophagy is a major system to manage bulk degradation and recycling

A bitopic mTORC inhibitor reverses phenotypes in a tuberous sclerosis complex model
Neural stem cells (NSCs) of the ventricular-subventricular zone (V-SVZ) generate diverse cell types including striatal glia during the neonatal period. NSC progeny uncouple stem cell-related mRNA transcripts from being translated during differentiation ...
