This medication behaves similar to that of a signal transduction inhibitor which prevents cells to grow and divide. It is mainly used for treating renal cell cancers and as an immunosuppressant in organ transplantation. It inhibits a protein called mTOR, which is responsible for glucose metabolism and the immune system where it stimulates cancer cells to grow. Therefore, mRNA is impaired affecting the growth of the cancerous tumour.
