Furthermore, proteins involved in the downstream mTOR pathway, including Coiled‐coil myosin‐like BCL2‐interacting 19 protein (Beclin1), autophagy‐related 5 (ATG5), and sequestosome 1 (p62), were evaluated using western blot following the treatment of GBM cells with LDS. This evidence concerns the gene ATG5 and glioblastoma.
