摘要
Tuberous sclerosis complex is caused by genetically determined, decreased absent expression of the genes TSC1 and TSC2 and is characterised by the growth of tumours in different organs: CNS, kidney, lungs, heart, skin and others. Loss of appropriate TSC1-TSC2-activity leads to constitutive mTOR activation, aberrant signalling and tumour growth. Inhibition of deficient mTOR-activity with Sirolimus and Everolimus is associated with anti-proliferative effects. Therefore, Sirolimus and especially Everolimus, are attractive therapy options in TSC-patients with defined organ manifestations (SEGA, AML and others).
