MTOR signaling is a crucial pathway that regulates various cellular processes such as cell growth, proliferation, metabolism, and survival. The mechanistic target of rapamycin (MTOR) is a protein kinase that functions as the central regulator of the pathway. Dysregulation of MTOR signaling has been implicated in numerous diseases, including cancer, diabetes, and neurodegenerative disorders. Researchers study this signaling pathway to better understand its role in health and disease, as well as to develop potential therapeutic targets for treating various conditions.
