Description
mTOR protein levels were found to underly a circadian 24-hour rhythm regulated by time-dependent Fbxw7-mediated ubiquitination. Survival rates of tumor-bearing mice with everolimus showed time-dependency consistent with mTOR protein levels. It could be hypothesized that FBXW7 loss leads to an increase in mTOR protein levels independent of circadian regulation and higher sensitivity to mTOR inhibitors.
