sericin / mTOR Cancer Research Results

sericin, sericin: Click to Expand ⟱
Features:
Sericin is a silk protein primarily obtained from the silkworm Bombyx mori and has attracted interest for its various biological properties. Some studies have investigated the potential anticancer properties of sericin.

-Sericin exhibits antioxidant properties, which may help protect cells against oxidative stress. Oxidative stress is known to contribute to the development and progression of cancer, so antioxidants are often considered beneficial in preventive strategies.
-Sericin’s anti-inflammatory effects might help reduce inflammation-related damage and potentially slow down processes that can lead to carcinogenesis.
mTOR, mammalian target of rapamycin: Click to Expand ⟱
Source: HalifaxProj (inhibit)
Type:
mTOR (mechanistic target of rapamycin) is a central regulator of cell growth, proliferation, metabolism, and survival. It is a serine/threonine kinase that integrates signals from nutrients, growth factors, and cellular energy status.
mTOR promotes protein synthesis and cell growth by activating downstream targets such as S6 kinase and 4E-BP1. In cancer, this pathway can become hyperactivated, leading to uncontrolled cell proliferation.

mTor Inhibitors:
-rapamycin (Sirolimus): classic natural product mTOR inhibitor
-Curcumin
-Resveratrol
-Epigallocatechin Gallate (EGCG)
-Honokiol
