Gene Information

human ... FKBP1A(2280)

General description

Temsirolimus is an esterified rapamycin compound, soluble in water.

Application

Temsirolimus has been used:
  • in combination with radiation to study its effect on von Hippel Lindau (VHL) tumour suppressor gene-deficient renal carcinoma cell lines
  • to induce autophagy
  • as a mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) inhibitor to study the effect of cellular Akt-kinase on human papillomaviruses 16 (HPV16) late gene expression

Biochem/physiol Actions

Temsirolimus is a specific inhibitor of mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) mTOR Complex 1 (mTORC1). Temsirolimus is an antiproliferative and antiangiogenic, the first-in-class mTOR inhibitor approved for the treatment of patients with advanced poor prognosis renal cell carcinoma.
The inhibitory action of temsirolimus is mediated by FKBP-12 (FK506-binding protein 12), a major intracellular protein. It is useful in treating renal-cell carcinoma.
