Scope and Contents

Contents

Rictor associates with mTOR to form the mTORC2 complex, which activity regulates neuronal function and survival. Neurodegenerative diseases are characterized by the presence of neuronal dysfunction and cell death in specific brain regions such as for example Huntington’s disease (HD), which is characterized by the loss of striatal projection neuron...
