摘要
Therapeutic and preventive effects of rapamycin include reduced risk of nonmelanoma skin cancer (NMSC). In this issue of the journal (beginning on page 1011), Checkley and colleagues report that rapamycin inhibits mTOR complex 1 in murine epidermis, thereby inhibiting tumor promotion mediated by tetradecanoyl phorbol-13 acetate in association with a strong anti-inflammatory effect. Rapamycin is an immunosuppressive drug for preventing graft rejection in organ transplant recipients and reduces the risk of NMSC and Kaposi's sarcoma in this population, albeit by mechanisms distinct from immunosuppression. Important future directions include identifying molecular predictors of rapamycin/ rapalog sensitivity or resistance (potentially, for example, PI3K pathway alterations and KRAS mutations) and combined nonrapalog, mTOR-targeting approaches, all of which should increase efficacy and minimize toxicity. Cancer Prev Res; 4(7); 957-61. (C)2011 AACR.
