The role of NOP58 in prostate cancer progression through SUMOylation regulation and drug response. (PubMed, Front Pharmacol)
Additionally, NOP58 was linked to drug responses, including Methotrexate, Rapamycin, Sorafenib, and Vorinostat. Its expression level serves as a reliable prognostic biomarker and an actionable therapeutic target, advancing precision medicine for prostate cancer. Targeting NOP58 may enhance therapeutic efficacy and improve outcomes in oncology.

The dual role of the TSC complex in cancer. (PubMed, Trends Mol Med)
The tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC1/TSC2/TBC1D7) primarily functions to inhibit the mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1), a crucial regulator of cell growth...However, more recent studies have shown that TSC proteins can also promote tumorigenesis in certain cancer types. In this review, we explore the composition and function of the TSC protein complex, the roles of its individual components in cancer biology, and potential future therapeutic targeting strategies.

Vertical targeting of the PI3K/AKT pathway at multiple points is synergistic and effective for non-Hodgkin lymphoma. (PubMed, Exp Hematol Oncol)
We studied this problem using cell lines representing diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (SUDHL-4 and OCI-Ly7), a genetically-encoded live-cell reporter of AKT activity, and 3 small-molecule inhibitors targeting different levels of the pathway: idelalisib (PI3Kδ), GSK2334470 (PDPK1), and ipatasertib (AKT)...Combining all 3 inhibitors produced sustained inhibition of AKT activity, was broadly synergistic at reducing viable cell number, enabled substantially lower doses of each inhibitor to be used, and was enhanced further by the mTOR inhibitor rapamycin...In a syngeneic mouse cell line model of lymphoma (A20), the triple combination showed antitumor activity and no evidence of toxicity. Our findings provide proof of concept suggesting further study of the safety and efficacy of low-dose multilevel PI3K/AKT pathway inhibition, for lymphoma and perhaps other cancers.

FBXO22 inhibits colitis and colorectal carcinogenesis by regulating the degradation of the S2448-phosphorylated form of mTOR. (PubMed, Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A)
FBXO22 targets the serine 2448-phosphorylated form of mammalian mechanistic target of rapamycin (pS2448-mTOR) for ubiquitin-dependent degradation...These RAPA effects are correlated with the ability of RAPA to inhibit pS2448-mTOR, pS6K1, and p4E-BP1. Collectively, our data support a suppressive role for FBXO22 in colorectal inflammation signaling and CRC initiation by targeting pS2448-mTOR for degradation.

Advances in Research on the Anticancer Properties and Mechanisms of Metformin in Lung Cancer. (PubMed, Br J Hosp Med (Lond))
Metformin lowers the risk of tumour development through various mechanisms, including the adenosine 5'-monophosphate-activated protein kinase/liver kinase B1/mechanistic target of rapamycin (AMPK/LKB1/mTOR) pathway, insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor pathway, apoptosis, and autophagy. However, research findings are not entirely consistent. This article reviews the research progress of metformin in terms of lung cancer treatment within the past few years, aiming to provide a more comprehensive understanding of how metformin exerts its anti-cancer impact and how it can be clinically applied, as well as provide new insights for lung cancer treatment.

Overall, this study provides multi-level information to reveal the toxic effects of deltamethrin on E. sinensis.

Trehalose Attenuates In Vitro Neurotoxicity of 6-Hydroxydopamine by Reducing Oxidative Stress and Activation of MAPK/AMPK Signaling Pathways. (PubMed, Int J Mol Sci)
Trehalose did not affect the extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) and mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1)/4EBP1 pathways, while it reduced the prosurvival mTORC2/AKT signaling...In conclusion, trehalose protects SH-SY5Y cells from 6-OHDA-induced oxidative stress, mitochondrial damage, and apoptosis through autophagy/p62-independent inhibition of JNK, p38 MAPK, and AMPK. The opposite effects of trehalose on the neurotoxicity of 6-OHDA and MPP+ suggest caution in its potential development as a neuroprotective agent.

ADAR1 plays a protective role in proximal tubular cells under high glucose conditions by attenuating the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway. (PubMed, Open Med (Wars))
Furthermore, it elucidated the molecular mechanism underlying the protective effect of ADAR1, the regulation of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B (PKB/Akt)/mammalian target of the rapamycin (mTOR) signaling...The upregulation of ADAR1 expression alleviated high-glucose-induced endoplasmic reticulum stress, reduced HK-2 cell apoptosis, and reduced the expression of inflammation-related indicators (PI3K/AKT/mTOR). Taken together, the pivotal roles of ADAR1 in the progression of proximal renal tubulopathy and the mechanism of high-glucose-induced HK-2 injury in diabetic db/db mice suggest that ADAR1 may be a potential key factor in slowing the progression of diabetic kidney disease.

Tumor microenvironment induced switch to mitochondrial metabolism promotes suppressive functions in immune cells. (PubMed, Int Rev Cell Mol Biol)
Elevated AMP:ATP ratio, a consequence of limited glucose levels, activate AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) while concurrently repressing the activity of mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) and hypoxia-inducible factor 1-alpha (HIF-1α)...This metabolic adaptation prompts immune cells to turn down their effector functions, entering a quiescent or immunosuppressive state that may support tumor growth. This article discusses how tumor microenvironment alters the metabolism in immune cells leading to their tolerance and tumor progression, with emphasis on mitochondrial metabolism (OXPHOS and FAO).

cNEK6 induces gemcitabine resistance by promoting glycolysis in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma via the SNRPA/PPA2c/mTORC1 axis. (PubMed, Cell Death Dis)
The expression level of cNEK6 in the peripheral blood and tumor tissues correlated significantly and positively with the activation of the mTORC1 pathway and degree of glycolysis. Hence, the therapeutic effect of gemcitabine is limited in patients with high cNEK6 levels, and in combination with the mTORC1 inhibitor, rapamycin, can enhance sensitivity to gemcitabine chemotherapy.

Subsequently, through further cellular uptake and degradation of the nanoparticles, the mTOR pathway inhibitor RAPA was released, further suppressing the tumor progression. This study successfully combined chemotherapy and immunotherapy, achieving effective synergistic therapeutic effects, and suppressing the progression of GBM.

Enhancing Therapeutic Efficacy of FLT3 Inhibitors with Combination Therapy for Treatment of Acute Myeloid Leukemia. (PubMed, Int J Mol Sci)
The advent of FLT3 tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), such as midostaurin and gilteritinib, has shown promise in achieving complete remission. Specifically, we provide evidence for integrating gilteritinib with mammalian targets of rapamycin (mTOR) inhibitors and interleukin-15 (IL-15) complexes. The combination of gilteritinib, mTOR inhibitors, and IL-15 complexes presents a compelling strategy to enhance the eradication of AML blasts and enhance NK cell killing, offering a potential for improved patient outcomes.

Sodium Tungstate Promotes Neurite Outgrowth and Confers Neuroprotection in Neuro2a and SH-SY5Y Cells. (PubMed, Int J Mol Sci)
In Neuro2a cells, Na2WO4 increases protein synthesis by activating the mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) and S6K kinases and GLUT3-mediated glucose uptake, providing the energy and protein synthesis needed for neurite outgrowth. These negative effects were corrected in both cell lines after incubation with Na2WO4. These findings support the role of Na2WO4 in neuronal plasticity, albeit further experiments using 3D cultures, and animal models will be needed to validate the therapeutic potential of the compound.

These findings suggest that Morin induces apoptotic and autophagic cell death by activating AMPK and ULK1 and suppressing mTOR pathways.
