RICTOR and non-small cell lung carcinoma: Using NSCLC cells as models, the aim of the present study includes (1) Identification of cis-acting elements in human Rictor promoter; (2) Elucidation of key regulatory molecule that modulated Rictor expression; (3) Estimation effect of regulatory molecule on Rictor expression and its role in mesenchymal-epithelial reprogramming and metastasis of NSCLC.
