In recent years, a significant progress was made in understanding molecular mechanisms of
long-term memory. Long-term memory formation requires strengthening of neuronal …

Background The mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) is an evolutionarily conserved
Ser/Thr protein kinase that plays a pivotal role in multiple fundamental biological processes …

Neurogenesis occurs in the brain during embryonic development and throughout adulthood.
Neurogenesis occurs in the hippocampus and under normal conditions and persists in two …

Mechanistic/mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) belongs to the phosphatidylinositol
kinase-related kinase (PIKK) family. mTOR signaling is required for the commencement of …

The mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) is a highly conserved serine/threonine kinase
that can sense environmental stimuli such as growth factors, energy state, and nutrients. It is …

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most prevalent form of dementia in the elderly population
and has worldwide impact. The etiology of the disease is complex and results from the …

Compelling evidence indicates that the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling
pathway is involved in cellular senescence, organismal aging and age-dependent diseases …

Introduction: The mTOR pathway is involved in the regulation of a wide repertoire of cellular
functions in the brain and its dysregulation is emerging as a leitmotif in a large number of …
