Rapamycin targets STAT3 and impacts c-Myc to suppress tumor growth

New research showing how rapamycin can help decrease tumor growth, but its complex… other recent research suggests rapamycin can increase cancer growth in some cases…

and supporting cancer growth:

Rapamycin-induced M2 macrophage autophagy promotes the migration and invasion of bladder cancer cells via increased IL-10 secretion

Rapamycin induces M2 macrophage autophagy and promotes the migration and invasion of bladder cancer by increasing IL-10 secretion, suggesting that M2 macrophage autophagy is an underlying target of rapamycin in treating bladder cancer.
