Abstract
The mTORC1 protein complex consists of multiple components such as the serine/threonine kinase mTOR and the regulatoryassociated protein of mTOR (Raptor). Three highly researched upstream modulators of mTOR are the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinases (PI3Ks), protein kinase B (Akt). PI3K, and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFa) regulates Akt. Increased expression of PI3K, Akt, and TNFa amplifies mTORC1 activity as well (Figure 1) [3,4].
