Q

How do mTor inhibitors reduce cell growth and proliferation?

A

Everolimus, Temsirolimus

  • mTor regulates synthesis of cyclin D1 which controls progression through G1/S phase checkpoint
  • mTor increases expression of amino acid and glucose transporters involved in glycolysis to produce ATP
