Phosphorylation-independent mTORC1 inhibition by the autophagy inducer Rottlerin

Highlights • Rottlerin inhibits proliferation and causes autophagic death in apoptosis-resistant MCF-7 breast cancer cells. • Autophagy is induced by PKCδ-, PP2A, - ERK-, PI3K/AKT-, Bcl2/Beclin- and AMPK-independent mTORC1 inhibition. • Rottlerin inhibits mTORC1 but not mTORC2 activity. • Ex vivo pu...

Description
Summary:Highlights • Rottlerin inhibits proliferation and causes autophagic death in apoptosis-resistant MCF-7 breast cancer cells. • Autophagy is induced by PKCδ-, PP2A, - ERK-, PI3K/AKT-, Bcl2/Beclin- and AMPK-independent mTORC1 inhibition. • Rottlerin inhibits mTORC1 but not mTORC2 activity. • Ex vivo pull-down assay demonstrated that Rottlerin directly binds mTOR.
