Biochemical cascadeA biochemical cascade, also known as a signaling cascade or signaling pathway, is a series of chemical reactions that occur within a biological cell when initiated by a stimulus. This stimulus, known as a first messenger, acts on a receptor that is transduced to the cell interior through second messengers which amplify the signal and transfer it to effector molecules, causing the cell to respond to the initial stimulus. Most biochemical cascades are series of events, in which one event triggers the next, in a linear fashion.
MTORvignette|Complexe mTORC1 mTOR (de l'anglais mechanistic target of rapamycin - auparavant mammalian target of rapamycin - en français cible de la rapamycine chez les mammifères) est une enzyme de la famille des sérine/thréonine kinases qui régule la prolifération cellulaire, la croissance cellulaire, la mobilité cellulaire, la survie cellulaire, la biosynthèse des protéines et la transcription. Au niveau pathologique, mTOR est depuis plusieurs années associé à la tumorigénèse mais des rôles de mTOR dans l'obésité, la faim et l'homéostasie énergétique de l'organisme entier ont également été soulignés .
