Myofiber: IGF1R
Pathway ID: SIGNOR-MyoIGF1R
Description: The stimulation of muscle growth through the activation of AKT/mTOR pathway has been well established and IGF1 is one important environmental stimulus that can enhance such a mechanism. IGF1 binds to its receptor and activates an intracellular cascade through the AKT pathway, ending with muscle cell growth.
