1 | BBR-SDT also reduced the phosphorylation of Akt and mTOR, two key molecules in the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway, which is responsible for inducing autophagy. | bbr-sdt | mechanistic target of rapamycin kinase | Homo sapiens |
2 | BBR-SDT also reduced the phosphorylation of Akt and mTOR, two key molecules in the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway, which is responsible for inducing autophagy. | bbr-sdt | mechanistic target of rapamycin kinase | Homo sapiens |
3 | Taken together, these results demonstrate that BBR-SDT effectively promotes cholesterol efflux by increasing reactive oxygen species generation, and this subsequently induces autophagy via the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway in both "normal" macrophages and lipid-loaded macrophages (foam cells). | bbr-sdt | mechanistic target of rapamycin kinase | Homo sapiens |
