mTOR and HDAC inhibitors converge on the TXNIP/thioredoxin pathway to cause catastrophic oxidative stress and regression of RAS-driven tumors. Homo sapiens

mTOR and HDAC inhibitors induce cell death of malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors (MPNSTs) in vitro, and in vivo We performed microarray analysis of mTOR and HDAC inhibition alone and in combination 24 hours after treatment, prior to induction of cell death, to identify transcriptional changes that might be mechanistic drivers of the therapeutic efficacy Overall design: 12 samples, in triplicate, 3X vehicle, 3X INK-128, 3X Vorinostat, 3X INK-128 + Vorinostat
