“…mTOR is important in a multitude of cellular processes, including cell growth and protein translation (6,14). A number of previous studies have investigated the nutrient regulation of mTORC1, and have indicated that mTORC1 exerts a vital influence on glucose metabolism (7,15).…”

“…Additionally, the cortical overgrowth in brain regions that were enlarged due to the genetic abnormality in the mceph/mceph mice was prevented by the treatment with carbamazepine. Furthermore, an alteration of the EGF/mTOR (mammalian target of rapamycin) signaling pathway has also been reported in the pathophysiology of epilepsy (Cho, 2011). Due to the direct inhibitory effects of the EGF/EGFR signaling pathways, the implication of Lingo-1 through the EGF-mTOR pathway also seems appropriate in the context of epilepsy.…”

“…However, conflicting data suggests that mTOR activation is not a universal finding in epilepsy, because several studies fail to show a benefit of rapamycin in mouse epilepsy models such as amygdalar stimulation (Sliwa et al 2012) and pilocarpine-induced seizures (Buckmaster and Lew 2011). Future studies to more fully define how mTOR signaling fosters epileptogenesis may provide hope for using mTOR inhibitors as antiepileptogenic drugs to prevent the onset of seizures and/or halt the regression of behavioral development in select clinical scenarios (Cho 2011;Galanopolou et al 2012).…”
