We have shown previously that rapamycin, the canonical inhibitor of the mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) complex 1, markedly inhibits the growth of focal lesions in the resistant hepatocyte (Solt-Farber) model of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in the rat. In the present study, we characterized...

The present study was designed to test the hypothesis that limited growth of the fetal liver in the model of maternal fasting is independent of well-characterized signaling mechanisms that are known to regulate somatic growth in adult animals. We profiled the fetal hepatic transcriptome and translat...

Recent work using mouse models has revealed that mTORC2, which unlike mTORC1 is not acutely sensitive to rapamycin, plays a key role in the regulation of organismal physiology. The substrates and pathways regulated by mTORC2 are at present relatively unknown Using a mouse model with a targeted delet...

This experiment utilized rat fibroblasts that are wild-type for c-Myc (TGR-1 cells) and null for c-Myc (HO15.19 cells). Both were treated treated with rapamycin for 24 hr (comparison group, vehicle control). Cells were studied under conditions that supported proliferation. Rapamycin (50nM or DMSO ...

Liver from RICTOR knockout mice show normal levels of mTORC1 signaling in response to refeeding. With this experiment we sought to compare the effects of Rictor depletion to the effects of mTORC1 inhibition by rapamycin in liver from mice that were fasted and refed. Mice were either fasted for 24hr...
