## Abstract Mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) is considered to be a major effector of cell growth and proliferation that controls protein synthesis through a large number of downstream targets. We investigated the expression of the phosphatidylinositol 3′‐kinase (PI3K)/mTOR signaling pathway in
Breast cancers frequently over-express a number of growth factor receptors. In addition, elevated src family kinase activity is present in a percentage of these neoplasms and has been implicated in signal transduction in these cells. Therefore, inhibiting tyrosine kinase activity is a potential appr
