Emerging roles of ATG7 in human health and disease [PDF]
The cardinal stages of macroautophagy are driven by core autophagy‐related (ATG) proteins, whose ablation largely abolishes intracellular turnover. Disrupting ATG genes is paradigmatic of studying autophagy deficiency, yet emerging data suggest that ATG ...

Inhibition of ATG7 promotes orthodontic tooth movement by regulating the RANKL/OPG ratio under compression force [PDF]
Autophagy serves as a protective mechanism in response to mechanical stress during OTM. However, the role of ATG7, a key regulatory gene in autophagy, in modulating periodontium remodeling during OTM remains unclear.

ATG7-induced autophagy inhibits ferroptosis and promotes the progression of colorectal adenocarcinoma [PDF]
Purpose To investigate the role of ATG7-induced autophagy in regulating ferroptosis and promoting the progression of colorectal adenocarcinoma (COAD). Method The UALCAN database was used to predict the expression of ATG7 and its prognosis significance in

Atg7 in CD4+ T cells improves intestinal mucosal inflammation by regulating Ets1‐mediated T cell differentiation [PDF]
Background Atg7‐autophagy–related gene 7 contributes as an immune cell function regulator, particularly involved in CD4⁺ T cell response. Nevertheless, the specific contribution of Atg7 in CD4⁺ T cells sensitive immune responses in inflammatory bowel ...

ATG7-driven mitophagy in BMSC@CS hydrogel reprograms metabolism to boost bone regeneration [PDF]
Bone regeneration remains a formidable challenging due to impaired energy metabolism and the limited osteogenic potential of transplanted stem cells. Mitochondrial homeostasis orchestrates osteogenesis, with mitophagy maintaining the metabolic rhythm ...

Autophagy protects cardiomyocytes from the myocardial ischaemia-reperfusion injury through the clearance of CLP36 [PDF]
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of the death worldwide. An increasing number of studies have found that autophagy is involved in the progression or prevention of CVD.

The role of autophagy in the Arabidopsis self-incompatible pollen rejection response
In plants, macroautophagy/autophagy is an essential mechanism responsible for a large variety of processes throughout the plant’s lifecycle, including nutrient processing, immunity, stress responses and senescence.

A novel region within a conserved domain in ATG7 emerged in vertebrates
The E1-like enzyme ATG7 belongs to a group of ATG proteins that mediate the autophagy process. Autophagy is a highly conserved degradation pathway important for maintaining homeostasis in eukaryotic cells.
