    Treating malignant pleural mesothelioma (MpM) is challenging due to a lack of druggable genes, but other molecular features could be clinically useful. Here the authors profile mRNA translation dysregulation in MpM cell lines using polysome profiling, and identify mTORC1 and 2 as potential pharmacological targets.

    Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) mainly originates from renal proximal tubules. Intriguingly, disruption of genes frequently mutated in human RCC samples thus far has only generated RCC originated from other renal tubule parts in mouse models. This hampers our understanding of the pathogenesis of RCC. Here we show that mTOR signaling, often activated in RCC samples, initiates RCC development from renal…

    Scripps Research scientists identify a medicine that prevents and treats a severe reaction to the drug haloperidol, also known as Haldol, commonly used for schizophrenia and bi-polar disorder. October 07, 2020 JUPITER, FL—The widely used psychiatric drug haloperidol, also known as Haldol, can cause a life-threatening adverse event called catalepsy, which leaves patients in…

    • The #psychiatric drug #haloperidol can cause the dangerous side effect catalepsy. New findings from the Subramaniam Lab show that this could be caused by the activity of the #mTOR protein (here in red) in neuronal #dopamine signaling. https://t.co/Y8ZA0HXGME @nresearchnews https://t.co/5njm5HP6t7
