pubmed:abstractText |
The mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) is a protein kinase that plays a key role in cellular growth and homeostasis. Because its regulation is frequently altered in tumors, mTOR is currently under investigation as a potential target for anticancer therapy. The purpose of our study was to determine the prognostic value of activated mTOR (p-mTOR) in patients with biliary tract adenocarcinoma (BTA), in order to strengthen the rationale for targeted therapy of BTA using mTOR inhibitors.
