“…3 In particular, mTOR signaling pathway is a pivotal regulator of cellular growth, differentiation, survival, metabolism, and stress response. [4][5][6][7] mTOR complex 1 (mTORC1) phosphorylates ribosomal protein S6 kinase (S6K) and eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E-BP1 to modulate translation, autophagy, lipid biosynthesis, mitochondrial biogenesis, and ribosome biogenesis. mTORC2 phosphorylates serum/glucocorticoid regulated kinase 1 (SGK1), Akt, Ras-related C3 botulinum toxin substrate 1 (Rac1), and protein kinase Cα (PKCα) to regulate cell survival, glycolytic enzymes, pentose phosphate pathway enzymes, glutaminase, and cytoskeletal organization.…”
