Modulating Neuronal Network Dysfunction in mTORopathies via Peptide-Mediated Inhibition of Rheb/mTOR Signalling
Newcastle University
Faculty of Medical Sciences Graduate School
Hyperactivation of mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signalling in neurons is associated with aberrant axonal and dendritic connectivity, enlarged soma size, increased cellular stress, reduced myelination, synaptic dysfunction and neuronal hyperexcitability. Read more
