FOXO transcription factors have emerged as rheostats that coordinate the activities of Akt and targets of rapamycin complexes (TORCs). This review summarizes the regulatory circuits mediated by the activation of FOXO, which in turn modulate Akt and TORCs activities. The biological significance of these regulatory circuits is discussed in this article. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled: P13K-AKT-FoxO axis in cancer and aging.
叉头框O(FOXO)转录因子已成为协调Akt和雷帕霉素靶蛋白复合物(TORCs)活性的变阻器。本综述总结了由FOXO激活介导的调控通路,这些通路反过来调节Akt和TORCs的活性。本文讨论了这些调控通路的生物学意义。本文是名为“癌症与衰老中的P13K-AKT-FoxO轴”特刊的一部分。
