Pathway link REDD1-TSC

REDD1 (DDIT4) TSC1/TSC2

REDD1 (DDIT4) activates TSC1/TSC2.

REDD1 acts through the TSC brake, so low oxygen and low growth-factor signals end up hitting the very same switch.

REDD1 works through the TSC complex, not around it - hypoxia and growth factors therefore converge on the same brake.

The conditions it holds under

Points the other way

No study in the Atlas contradicts this link. That means none in this curated set, not none in the literature.
