mTOR Part 1: Activation of mTOR and Overall Effects

The video tutorial explores the mTOR complex, its role in protein synthesis, and its importance in exercise physiology and kinesiology. It details how mTOR stimulates muscle and cell growth, influences metabolic pathways like aerobic glycolysis, and supports biosynthesis of lipids and nucleotides. The tutorial also discusses factors that inhibit or stimulate mTOR, such as stress, amino acids, and insulin, and highlights the significance of mTOR in cell growth and division.
