RICTOR is a key component of the mTORC2 signaling complex which is involved in the regulation of cell growth, proliferation and survival. RICTOR is highly expressed in neurons and is necessary for brain development. Here, we report eight unrelated patients presenting with intellectual disability and/or development delay and carrying variants in the RICTOR gene.

Background: The lengthy duration and high frequency of drug resistance associated with currently used antimycobacterial drug treatments have intensified the need for alternative therapies against Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the causative agent of TB.
Methods: MICs and intracellular macrophage cfu counts were tested to evaluate the antibacterial activity of nintedanib and pirfenidone against drug-susceptible and -resistant M. tuberculosis.

Lung cancer is emerging as one of the most frequently encountered malignancies around the world that carries high morbidity and mortality. Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) has become the most common subtype of lung cancer. MLLT3 or named AF9 was first characterized in acute myeloid leukemia and can downregulate the expression of several critical genes.

Tuberculosis (TB) caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), results in significant morbidity and mortality worldwide. Host-directed therapy (HDT), including conventional drugs, is a promising anti-TB strategy that shows synergistic antibacterial effects when combined with anti-TB drugs. Here, the mycobactericidal effect of three anti-diabetic drugs was examined.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFTreatment of (Mab) infections is very challenging due to its intrinsic resistance to most available drugs. Therefore, it is crucial to discover novel anti-Mab drugs. In this study, we explored an intrinsic resistance mechanism through which Mab resists echinomycin (ECH).
