Autophagy inhibition enhances RAD001-induced cytotoxicity in human bladder cancer cells

BACKGROUND: Mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR), involved in PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway, is known to play a central role in regulating the growth of cancer cells. The PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway enhances tumor survival and proliferation through suppressing autophagy, which sustains energy homeostasis by colle...
