The FASN inhibitor cerulenin and the mTOR inhibitor rapamycin each cause cell death, as shown in previous studies[26], [27].To determine whether the mTOR inhibitor synergized with the FASN inhibitor to induce cytotoxicity, the breast cancer cells were treated with cerulenin, rapamycin or the combination of cerulenin and rapamycin. Here, FASN is linked to breast cancer.
