mTOR, mammalian target of rapamycin: Click to Expand ⟱
Source: HalifaxProj (inhibit)
Type:
mTOR (mechanistic target of rapamycin) is a central regulator of cell growth, proliferation, metabolism, and survival. It is a serine/threonine kinase that integrates signals from nutrients, growth factors, and cellular energy status.
mTOR promotes protein synthesis and cell growth by activating downstream targets such as S6 kinase and 4E-BP1. In cancer, this pathway can become hyperactivated, leading to uncontrolled cell proliferation.

mTor Inhibitors:
-rapamycin (Sirolimus): classic natural product mTOR inhibitor
-Curcumin
-Resveratrol
-Epigallocatechin Gallate (EGCG)
-Honokiol

2678- BBR,    Berberine as a Potential Agent for the Treatment of Colorectal Cancer
- Review, CRC, NA
*Inflam↓, BBR exerts remarkable anti-inflammatory (94–96), antiviral (97), antioxidant (98), antidiabetic (99), immunosuppressive (100), cardiovascular (101, 102), and neuroprotective (103) activities.

cycE/CCNE↓,
CDC2↓, BBR also induced G1 cycle arrest by inhibiting cyclin B1 expression and CDC2 kinase in some cancer cells
AMPK↝, BBR has been suggested to induce autophagy in glioblastoma by targeting the AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK)/mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR)/ULK1 pathway
mTOR↝,

GutMicro↑, BBR can inhibit tumor growth through meditation of the intestinal flora and mucosal barrier, and generally and ultimately improve weight loss. BBR has been reported to modulate the composition of intestinal flora and significantly reduce flora divers
eff↝, BBR can regulate the activity of P-glycoprotein (P-gp), and potential drug-drug interactions (DDIs) are observed when BBR is coadministered with P-gp substrates
*BioAv↓, the efficiency of BBR is limited by its low bioavailability due to its poor absorption rate in the gut, low solubility in water, and fast metabolism. Studies have shown that the oral bioavailability of BBR is 0.68% in rats
BioAv↑, combining it with p-gp inhibitors (such as tariquidar and tetrandrine) (196, 198), and modification to berberine organic acid salts (BOAs)
