Mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) is involved in a variety of cellular signaling pathways, which is related to
cell growth, proliferation,
autophagy,
apoptosis and
cell cycle progression.mTOR signaling pathway is usually activated in
tumors and is closely related to the occurrence, progression and
metabolism of
tumors.Therefore, mTOR signaling pathway is a hot spot in anti-
tumor therapy research.In recent years, with the
research of the mechanism of mTOR signaling pathway in
digestive system tumors and the exploration of inhibitors, new ideas have been provided for
clinical diagnosis and
treatment,
prognosis assessment and targeted
drug development.
