INHIBITION OF mTOR KINASE AFFECTS ASTROCYTES GFAP mRNA EXPRESSION IN IN VITRO CONDITIONS

In this in vitro study the effects of rapamycin – mTOR kinase inhibitor, on the activity of kinase complexes componenents Rictor and Raptor, and on astrocytes activity were investigated. Astrocytes were incubated for 24 hours in various glucose conditions: normoglycemia (CONTROL : 4.5 g glucose.L-1)...
