    Activation of the PI3K-mTOR pathway is central to breast cancer pathogenesis including resistance to many targeted therapies. The mTOR kinase forms two distinct complexes, mTORC1 and mTORC2, and understanding which is required for the survival of malignant cells has been limited by tools to selectively and completely impair either subcomplex. To address this, we used RMC-6272, a bi-steric…

    Abstract. The mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) plays a key role in normal and malignant cell growth. However, pharmacologic targeting of mTOR in cancer has shown little clinical benefit, in spite of aberrant hyperactivation of mTOR in most solid tumors. Here, we discuss possible reasons for the reduced clinical efficacy of mTOR inhibition and highlight lessons learned from recent…

    Summary We present a protocol for measuring the activity of the mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway in ex vivo isolated mouse primary hepatocytes. It can be used as a tool for genetic, pharmacological, metabolomic, and signal transduction procedures. We discuss critical aspects for improving yield, viability, and modulation of the mTOR pathway. This protocol can…

    Astrocyte interleukin-3 preps microgliaBrain β-amyloid (Aβ) deposition is a biomarker for Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and other dementias, in which Aβ amounts correlate with disease burden. McAlpine et al. reveal that astrocyte expression or administration of interleukin (IL)-3 in the context of aggregated Aβ endows microglia with enhanced capability to cluster and clear Aβ oligomers.Full-Text…

    Dr. Peter Crino’s research program focuses on defining developmental brain disorders, specifically those associated with aberrant mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling. Recently, Dr. Crino’s lab identified new mutations in mTOR pathway genes (MPGs) that are associated with a clinical syndrome characterized by megalencephaly (a condition characterized by overdeveloped
