AKT-mTOR-p70S6K Pathway

Target
AKT-mTOR-p70S6K Pathway
Molecular classification
Signaling pathway
01

Overview

The AKT-mTOR-p70S6K pathway is a crucial intracellular signaling cascade that regulates cell growth, proliferation, survival, and metabolism. It integrates signals from growth factors and nutrients to control fundamental cellular processes. Dysregulation of this pathway is frequently observed in cancer, making it a major target for anticancer drug development.
