mTOR-mediated cancer drug resistance suppresses autophagy and generates a druggable metabolic vulnerability

mTORC1 is a key mediator of drug resistance and also regulates autophagy. In this study, the authors demonstrate that cancer cells with acquired drug resistance exibit metabolic vulnerabilities mediated by high levels of mTORC1 and the consequent inhibition of autophagy.
