Abstract excerpt
The mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) is often referred to as a master regulator of the cellular metabolism that can integrate the growth factor and nutrient signaling. Fasting suppresses hepatic mTORC1 activity via the activity of the tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC), a negative regulator of mTORC1, to suppress anabolic metabolism. The loss of TSC1 in the liver locks the liver in a constitutively anabolic...
