Regulation of colonic epithelial cell homeostasis by mTORC1

Scientific Reports, 2020
Cell signaling important for homeostatic regulation of colonic epithelial cells (CECs) remains poorly understood. Mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1), a protein complex that contains the serine-threonine kinase mTOR, mediates signaling that ...

Impaired Chaperone‐Mediated Autophagy Accelerates Intervertebral Disc Degeneration by Inducing MIDN Accumulation to Target TSC2 for Proteasomal Degradation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This graphical abstract illustrates how chaperone‐mediated autophagy (CMA) regulates intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD). Under normal homeostasis (B), CMA degrades cytoplasmic Midnolin (MIDN) to maintain proteostasis. Under inflammatory stress (A), impaired CMA leads to cytoplasmic MIDN accumulation.

Ablation of TSC2 enhances insulin secretion by increasing the number of mitochondria through activation of mTORC1. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
AIM:We previously found that chronic tuberous sclerosis protein 2 (TSC2) deletion induces activation of mammalian target of rapamycin Complex 1 (mTORC1) and leads to hypertrophy of pancreatic beta cells from pancreatic beta cell-specific TSC2 knockout ...

Anodal Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation Improves Social Behavior Alongside Neuroplastic Changes in a Tsc2+/− Rat Model of Autism Spectrum Disorder

Autism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by altered synaptic connectivity and network organization, resulting in profound impairments in social communication and interaction. Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) represents a promising approach to modulate maladaptive plasticity associated with ASD;

Single serine on TSC2 exerts biased control over mTORC1 activation mediated by ERK1/2 but not Akt

Life Science Alliance, 2022
Both ERK1/2 and Akt kinases activate mTORC1, but only the former is bidirectionally regulated by the status of serine S1364 on TSC2 that confers input-selective mTORC1 amplification or attenuation. Tuberous sclerosis complex-2 (TSC2) negatively regulates

Facilitating the timely diagnosis of Lennox–Gastaut syndrome: A checklist to support clinical practice

Epileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective To develop and evaluate a simple‐to‐use checklist to support physicians with the timely diagnosis of Lennox–Gastaut syndrome (LGS). Methods A panel of 10 pediatric and adult epileptologists used the International League Against Epilepsy (ILAE) criteria for LGS classification and definition to develop seven questions for the checklist,

Architecture of the Tuberous Sclerosis protein complex [PDF]

, 2020
The Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (TSC) protein complex (TSCC), comprising TSC1, TSC2, and TBC1D7, is widely recognised as a key integration hub for cell growth and intracellular stress signals upstream of the mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1)

Enhanced Sestrin expression through Tanshinone 2A treatment improves PI3K-dependent inhibition of glioma growth

Cell Death Discovery, 2023
Glioblastomas are a highly aggressive cancer type which respond poorly to current pharmaceutical treatments, thus novel therapeutic approaches need to be investigated.

Insights into Overlappings of Fibrosis and Cancer: Exploring the Tumor-related Cardinal Genes in Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis

Iranian Journal of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology, 2023
The pathogenesis of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is quite similar to that of cancer pathogenesis, and several pathways appear to be involved in both disorders.
