Hypothalamic mTORC2 is essential for metabolic health and longevity
Abstract
The mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) is an evolutionarily conserved protein kinase that regulates growth and metabolism. mTOR is found in two protein complexes, mTORC1 and mTORC2, that have distinct components and substrates and are both inhibited by rapamycin, a macrolide drug that robustly extends lifespan in multiple species including worms and mice. Although the beneficial effect of rapamycin on longevity is generally attributed to reduced mTORC1 signaling, disruption of mTORC2 signaling can also influence the longevity of worms, either positively or negatively depending on the temperature and food source. Here, we show that loss of hypothalamic mTORC2 signaling in mice decreases activity level, increases the set point for adiposity, and renders the animals susceptible to diet‐induced obesity. Hypothalamic mTORC2 signaling normally increases with age, and mice lacking this pathway display higher fat mass and impaired glucose homeostasis throughout life, become more frail with age, and have decreased overall survival. We conclude that hypothalamic mTORC2 is essential for the normal metabolic health, fitness, and lifespan of mice. Our results have implications for the use of mTORC2‐inhibiting pharmaceuticals in the treatment of brain cancer and diseases of aging.

Genetic inhibition of mTORC2 in one or more tissues of a mouse can result in frailty, hyperphagia, insulin resistance, hyperlipidemia, hypercholesterolemia, hyperglycemia, kyphosis, and/or obesity depending upon the specific tissues in which mTORC2 is inhibited.

From Targeting the biology of aging with mTOR inhibitors (2023) · cites this paper as [115]
The Results section ('mTORC2 signaling is essential for healthspan and lifespan'; page unavailable) reports that hypothalamic Rictor deletion shortened lifespan in both female and male mice. The Introduction also reports reduced male lifespan after whole-body RICTOR depletion or hepatic Rictor deletion. The paper does not establish reduced lifespan from adipose-specific inhibition, and its Materials and Methods say the experimental mice were backcrossed to C57BL/6N, not C57BL/6J. (LLM, conf=0.90)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
