The mammalian target of rapamycin complex 2 (mTORC2) contains the essential protein RICTOR and is activated by growth factors. mTORC2 in adipose tissue contributes to regulating glucose and lipid metabolism. In the perivascular adipose tissue (PVAT) mTORC2 ensures normal vascular reactivity by contr...

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...

We provide evidence that IFN-induced Stat-activation is defective in cells with targeted disruption of the Rictor gene, whose protein product is a key element of mTOR complex 2 (mTORC2). Our studies show that transient or stable knockdown of Rictor leads to decreased expression of several IFN-indu...

RNA sequencing of Rictor-deficient epidermis
Nearly 50% of cutaneous melanomas carry activating mutations on the BRAF oncogene, and the combination of BRAF- and MEK-inhibitors (BRAF/MEKi) is frequently used for their clinical management. One major drawback of BRAF/MEKi targeted therapy is the rapid development of therapeutic resistance, which ...

Background Main drawback of BRAF/MEK inhibitors (BRAF/MEKi)-based targeted therapy in the management of BRAF- mutated cutaneous metastatic melanoma (MM) is the development of therapeutic resistance. We aimed to define in this context the specific role of mTORC2, a signaling complex defined by the pr...

Effect of myeloid specific rictor knockout on B16-F10 tumors grown in mice
Gene expression data from LCMV-specific Rictor-/- and WT follicular T helper cells
Little is known about the roles of Rictor/mTORC2 in the leukemogenesis of AML. Here, we demonstrated that Rictor is essential for the maintenance of MLL-driven leukemia by preventing LSCs from exhaustion. Rictor depletion led to a reactive activation of mTORC1 signaling by facilitating the assembly ...
