1 Metformin inhibits mammalian target of rapamycin-dependent translation initiation in breast cancer cells. Metformin mechanistic target of rapamycin kinase Homo sapiens
2 The decrease in translation caused by metformin was associated with mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) inhibition, and a decrease in the phosphorylation of S6 kinase, ribosomal protein S6, and eIF4E-binding protein 1. Metformin mechanistic target of rapamycin kinase Homo sapiens
3 The decrease in translation caused by metformin was associated with mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) inhibition, and a decrease in the phosphorylation of S6 kinase, ribosomal protein S6, and eIF4E-binding protein 1. Metformin mechanistic target of rapamycin kinase Homo sapiens
4 These results show that metformin-mediated AMPK activation leads to inhibition of mTOR and a reduction in translation initiation, thus providing a possible mechanism of action of metformin in the inhibition of cancer cell growth. Metformin mechanistic target of rapamycin kinase Homo sapiens
