"Because deficiency in either TSC1 or -2 leads to a very similar disease phenotype in humans with TSC ( xref ), and hamartin and tuberin form a complex in both mammalian cells ( xref ) and in Drosophila ( xref ; xref ), an important common function of the TSC1-2 complex has been sought that could explain its tumor suppressor activity."

"In neuronal translation, mTORC1 signaling is a regulator of long-lasting synaptic plasticity and memory as it integrates signals from neuronal surface receptors/channels via MEK/ERK- and PI3K/AKT-mediated phosphorylation and inactivation of the TSC1-TSC2 complex [ xref – xref ]."

"The major breakthrough in understanding the functions of TSC1 and TSC2 came with identifying that TSC2 binds TSC1 via its N-terminal domain and forms the TSC1 and TSC2 tumor suppressor complex that acts as a negative regulator of the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) complex 1 (mTORC1), a key regulator of cell growth, proliferation, metabolism, and autophagy XREF_BIBR - XREF_BIBR."

"While early reports proposed that Akt-mediated phosphorylation destabilizes the TSC1-TSC2 complex, leading to dissociation of TSC1 from TSC2 and subsequent activation of mTORC1 signaling (16, 18), more recent studies have suggested that there was no destabilization of endogenous TSC1 and TSC2 protein complexes before or after TSC2 phosphorylation."

"These findings suggest that while the HBD in the N-terminus of TSC2 contributes to the interaction with CBAP, other regions of TSC2 may also be involved.To further investigate the effect of CBAP on the interaction between TSC2 and TSC1, we expressed equal amounts of exogenous GFP-tagged HBD with increasing amounts of Flag-tagged CBAP in CBAP-deficient HEK293T cells."

"The different effects of MHY1485 and 3BDO compared to TSC1 deficiency on cytokine production suggests that the TSC1/TSC2 complex may be involved in other regulatory pathways in addition to mTORC1.It is interesting to note that there is evidence for the participation of the mTORC1-mediated signaling pathway in the process of MC granule biogenesis after degranulation [42]."

"To further verify that it is indeed mTORC1 that mediates the positive regulation of STAT3 and the negative regulation of miR-125b-5p downstream of TSC1 and TSC2 complex, we examined STAT3 and miR-125b-5p level in Raptor (a specific component of mTORC1) or Rictor (a specific component of mTORC2)-knockdown Tsc2-/- MEFs."

"Advances in understanding the molecular pathology underlying Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (TSC) and sporadic Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) led to the identification of the mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) as a critical effector of the hamartin and tuberin heterodimer."

"Hamartin and tuberin interact with each other through their coiled-coil domains to form a stable and functional heterodimer that promotes the GTPase activity of Rheb protein, thus preventing the Rheb-GTP-dependent stimulation of cell proliferation, adhesion, growth, differentiation and migration, through the mTOR pathway [ xref , xref – xref ]."

"Regulators that induce autophagy include tumor suppressors, such as PTEN, TSC1 and TSC2 complexes, and DAPk; stress activated signaling molecules, such as c-Jun N-terminal kinase 1 (JNK1), and those that respond to low energy (for example, AMP kinase) or endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress (for example, PERK, eIF2alpha-kinase and IRE1), and molecules involved in innate immune signaling, such as toll like receptors and immunity related GTPases."

"The R2TP complex is known for its involvement in the assembly and stabilization of several multiprotein complexes such as L7Ae ribonucleoproteins, U5 small nuclear ribonucleoprotein, RNA polymerase II, phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase-related kinases (PIKKs), and the mTOR/tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC1-TSC2)."

"It is caused by a heterozygous TSC1 or TSC2 mutation that, in combination with a “second hit”, leads to a loss of the hamartin–tuberin complex and thereby to a constitutive activation of the mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC 1) effecting cell proliferation and tumorigenesis [ xref ]."

"XREF_BIBR, XREF_BIBR Growth factor stimulation results in PI3K-Akt activation, and activated Akt promotes mTORC1 signaling through Akt mediated phosphorylation of both TSC2 and PRAS40, in which Akt mediated phoshorylation of TSC2 relieves the inhibitory effect of TSC1 and TSC2 complex on mTORC1 activation and cell growth."
reach
"The phosphorylation of TSC2 on the residues of serine 939, serine 981, and threonine 1462 can increase its binding to the anchor protein 14-3-3 and lead to the cellular sequestration by 14-3-3, disruption of the TSC1 and TSC2 complex, and subsequent activation of Rheb and mTORC1 [XREF_BIBR]."

"In addition, the study also confirmed that in rat mesangial cell lines cultured in high glucose environment, mTOR regulates cell growth and proliferation by phosphorylating downstream proteins p70s6k and 4E-BP1, and DDIT4 inhibits cell proliferation by up regulating the expression of mTOR by up regulating TSC1/TSC2 complex (Chen et al., 2018a; Herb and Schramm, 2021)."

"Nellist et al. (2005), studied other TSC2 variants, R905Q, and P1202H, which are similar to F1510del in that they do not involve the TSC1 interacting region within residues 70–530, and thus do not prevent TSC1-TSC2 complex formation, do not involve the so-called tuberin domain (555–903) and are N-terminal to the TSC2 GAP domain [37]."
