Specifically, we concentrated on the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling pathway, which is a positive regulator of cell growth and proliferation by promoting many anabolic processes (biosynthesis of proteins, lipids and organelles), and limiting catabolic processes, and is deregulated in human cancer (Saxton and Sabatini, 2017); and on the BCL2 family, which is overexpressed in many cancers including melanoma, and involves pro- and antiapoptotic proteins leading to the intrinsic or mitochondrial apoptotic response (Hata et al., 2015). Here, BCL2 is linked to cancer.
