Torin-1 Explained
Torin-1 is a drug which was one of the first non-rapalog derived inhibitors of the mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) subtypes mTORC1 and mTORC2.[1] [2] [3] In animal studies it has anti-inflammatory,[4] [5] anti-cancer,[6] [7] and anti-aging properties,[8] [9] [10] [11] and shows activity against neuropathic pain.[12] [13] [14]
