AZD8055: Practical mTOR Inhibitor Workflow
2026-08-19
AZD8055 is a selective ATP-competitive mTOR inhibitor for dissecting mTORC1 and mTORC2 signaling in biochemical, cellular, and selected preclinical models. It is best suited to mechanistic research rather than clinical efficacy assessment, and its poor water and ethanol solubility requires disciplined DMSO-based handling.

What AKT Inhibitor Pharmacology Reveals
2026-08-19
Kostaras and colleagues systematically compared ATP-competitive and allosteric AKT inhibitors using biochemical, cellular, structural, and phosphoproteomic approaches. Their findings show that inhibitor class, AKT isoform, mutation status, and non-catalytic signaling can strongly shape drug activity, offering a framework for interpreting context-specific responses and rational combinations.
