Antiserum was collected from the immunized mice after the fifth immunization and its titer was determined with enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA）. The results showed that the recombinant polyclonal antibody had a titer 1：200000 and could react with the roTOR expressed in GFb cells with a specific and sensitive affinity. Western blot showed that mTOR expression and phospho-mTOR （Ser 2448） activity were inhibited when GFb cells were treated with CCI-779, an mTOR specific inhibitor.展开更多
