The mTOR pathway controls cell proliferation by regulating the FoxO3a transcription factor via SGK1 kinase.

The mTOR pathway controls cell proliferation by regulating the FoxO3a transcription factor via SGK1 kinase.

The mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) functions as a component of two large complexes, mTORC1 and mTORC2, which play crucial roles in regulating cell growth and homeostasis. However, the molecular mechanisms by which mTOR controls cell proliferation remain elusive. Here we show that the FoxO3a...
