The most current studies on Raptor are based on the findings of new phenomena, but none are linked to metabolic disease models such as gastric cancer, colon cancer, diabetes, etc. Since mTORC1 plays a role in the proliferation and metastasis of cancer cells, the regulation of Raptor in the proliferation and differentiation of cancer cells may be a direction worth exploring in the future. The gene discussed is RPTOR; the disease is cancer.
