- W3110369711 abstract "ABSTRACT The PI3K/mTOR signalling network critically regulates a broad array of important biological processes, including cell growth, metabolism and autophagy. Dysregulation of PI3K/mTOR signalling is associated with a variety of human diseases, including cancer and metabolic disorders. The mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) is a kinase that functions as a core catalytic subunit in two physically and functionally distinct complexes termed mTOR complex 1 (mTORC1) and mTORC2, which also share other common components such as mLTS8 (also known as GβL) and DEPTOR. Despite being the subject of intensive research, a full picture of how mTORC1/2 assembly and activity are coordinated, and how they are functionally connected remain to be fully characterised. This is due primarily to the complex network wiring, featuring a growing number of intricate feedback loops and post-translational modifications, which require quantitative systems-level approaches to decipher. Here, we integrate predictive computational modelling, in vitro experiments and -omics data analysis to elucidate the dynamic and emergent features of the PI3K/mTOR network behavior. We construct new mechanistic models of the network that encapsulate novel critical mechanistic details, including mTORC1/2 coordination by mLTS8 (de)ubiquitination, and Akt-to-mTORC2 positive feedback loop. Model simulations subsequently confirmed by experimental validation revealed a previously unknown biphasic, threshold-gated dependence of mTORC1 activity on the key mTORC2 subunit Sin1, which is robust against cell-to-cell variation in protein expression. Furthermore, our results support the essential role of mLST8 in both mTORC1 and 2 activity, and suggest mLST8 could serve as a viable therapeutic target in breast cancer. Overall, our integrated analyses provide fresh systems-level insights into the dynamic behavior of PI3K/mTOR signalling and shed new light on the complexity of this important network. AUTHOR SUMMARY Signalling networks are the key information-processing machineries that underpin the ability of living cells to respond proportionately to extra- (and intra-) cellular cues. The PI3K/mTOR signalling network is one of the most important signalling networks in human cells that regulates cellular response to hormones such as insulin, yet our understanding of the network behaviour remains far from complete. Here, we employed a highly integrative approach that combines predictive mathematical modelling, biological experimentation, and data analysis to gain novel systems-level insights into PI3K/mTOR signalling. We constructed new mathematical models of this complex network incorporating important regulatory mechanisms. In contrary to commonly held views that mTORC2 lies upstream and is a positive regulator of mTORC1, we found that their relationship is highly nonlinear and dose dependent. This finding has major implications for mTORC2-directed anti-cancer strategies as depending on the cellular contexts, blocking mTORC2 may reduce or even enhance mTORC1 activation, the latter could inadvertently blunt the effect of mTORC2 blockade. Furthermore, our results demonstrate that mLST8 is required for the assembly and activity of both mTOR complexes, and suggest mLST8 is a viable therapeutic target in breast cancer, notably breast cancer." @default.
