The mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) is a central node in cell regulation, impacting everything from cellular growth and metabolism to the intricate mechanisms of aging and disease. Its role in the eye, however, is an emerging field that promises to revolutionize our understanding of ocular health and disease.
This book discusses the role of mTOR signaling in the eye. It aims bridge the gap between deep molecular biology and clinical ophthalmology by focusing on the profound effects of mTOR signaling in various parts of the eye. The initial chapters of this book lay the foundational knowledge necessary to understand the complex biology of mTOR, followed by the specific effects on each individual parts of the eye.
This book is written for researchers, clinicians, and students who are part of a multidisciplinary team striving to push the boundaries of ocular research into mTOR pathways. By the end of this journey, readers will have a comprehensive understanding of the multifaceted roles of mTOR in the eye and the brain, equipped with the knowledge to translate these insights into innovative treatments for ocular and neurodegenerative diseases.
