Therapeutic benefit of rapamycin combined with clorgyline or rasagiline in an immunodeficient LAM model
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Inhibition of mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) constitutes the standard of care of lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM). However, this treatment does not eradicate diseased cells and some patients show progressive decline of lung function. This study provides preclinical evidence for beneficial therapeutic approaches in combination with rapamycin. LAM tumorigenesis is reduced in vivo (ELT3-V3 tumor xenografts) using approved drugs for other human diseases and targeting monoamine oxidase A (MAO-A; clorgyline) or MAO-B (rasagiline).
