Phosphorylation of androgen receptor by mTORC1 promotes liver steatosis and tumorigenesis

Abstract

AR S96 phosphorylation by mTORC1 drives liver steatosis and HCC development and progression independently and cooperatively with androgen, which not only explains why HCC is man-biased but also provides a target molecule for prevention and treatment of HCC and a potential survival predictor in patients with HCC.
