项目摘要

The broad objective of this proposal is to investigate the intrinsic mechanisms of tumor cell resistance to newly developed mTOR inhibitors such that their future use may be optimized in the clinic. We have identified an alternate mechanism of mRNA translation initiation that is activated upon mTOR inhibitor exposure allowing tumor cell survival in the face of global inhibition of protein synthesis. These experiments will delineate the molecular mechanisms promoting activation of this salvage pathway and will pre-clinically evaluate the repurposing of an FDA-approved drug as a small molecule inhibitor targeting this pathway for synergistic antitumor effects in combination with mTOR inhibitors. We will utilize a combination of genetic and biochemical approaches to address the molecular mechanisms by which the salvage protein synthesis pathway is activated in TOR inhibitor resistant brain cancers. We will utilize mouse models of these diseases to evaluate the efficacy of these inhibitors.

该提议的广泛目的是研究肿瘤的内在机制细胞对新开发的MTOR抑制剂的耐药性，以便可以优化其未来使用在诊所。我们已经确定了mRNA翻译启动的替代机制在MTOR抑制剂暴露时激活，面对全球的肿瘤细胞存活抑制蛋白质合成。这些实验将描述分子机制促进这种打捞途径的激活，并将在链式前评估重新利用 FDA批准的药物作为针对该途径的小分子抑制剂的协同作用抗肿瘤作用与MTOR抑制剂结合使用。我们将利用遗传的组合和生化方法来解决分子机制的抢救机制蛋白质合成途径被激活在TOR抑制剂抗脑癌中。我们将利用这些疾病的小鼠模型评估这些抑制剂的功效。
