Bi-steric mTORC1-selective Inhibitors activate 4EBP1 reversing MYC-induced tumorigenesis and synergize with immunotherapy
2022-02-05
Abstract excerpt
The MYC oncogene is causally involved in the pathogenesis of most types of human cancer but it remains therapeutically untargeted. The mTORC1 protein complex regulates cap-dependent translation through 4EBP1 and S6K and thereby, downstream MYC protein expression. However, to date, agents such as rapalogs that selectively target mTORC1 (as compared to mTORC2) fail to reactivate 4EBP1 and thus, to block MYC in vivo...
