Specific blockade of Rictor-mTOR association inhibits mTORC2 activity and is cytotoxic in glioblastoma.

Specific blockade of Rictor-mTOR association inhibits mTORC2 activity and is cytotoxic in glioblastoma.

A small molecule which specifically blocks the interaction of Rictor and mTOR was identified utilizing a high-throughput yeast two-hybrid screen and evaluated as a potential inhibitor of mTORC2 activity in glioblastoma multiforme (GBM). In vitro, CID613034 inhibited mTORC2 kinase activity at submicr...
