Electron micrograph of the β-cell in the monkey after the hydroxynonenal injections.

open access: yes, 2021
β-cell shows fusion of an autolysosome (Al) with a peroxisome (P) exhibiting membrane disruption (arrows). The autolysosome (Al) contains mitochondria-derived debris (asterisk). The neighbouring lysosome (Ly) shows membrane permeabilization.

The pivotal role of dysregulated autophagy in the progression of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a clinicopathologic syndrome characterized by excessive fat deposition in hepatocytes and a major cause of end-stage liver disease.

The Precision Control of Autophagic Flux and Vesicle Dynamics—A Micropattern Approach

open access: yesCells, 2018
Autophagy failure is implicated in age-related human disease. A decrease in the rate of protein degradation through the entire autophagy pathway, i.e., autophagic flux, has been associated with the onset of cellular proteotoxity and cell death.

Physapruin A Induces Reactive Oxygen Species to Trigger Cytoprotective Autophagy of Breast Cancer Cells

open access: yesAntioxidants, 2022
Physalis peruviana-derived physapruin A (PHA) is a potent compound that selectively generates reactive oxygen species (ROS) and induces cancer cell death. Autophagy, a cellular self-clearance pathway, can be induced by ROS and plays a dual role in cancer

RUNDC1 negatively mediates the fusion of autophagosomes with lysosomes via regulating SNARE complex assembly

open access: yes, 2023
Macroautophagy/autophagy is an essential pro-survival mechanism activated in response to nutrient deficiency. The proper fusion between autophagosomes and lysosomes is a critical step for autophagic degradation.

Enhanced Autolysosomal Function Ameliorates the Inflammatory Response Mediated by the NLRP3 Inflammasome in Alzheimer’s Disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2021
The pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) involves activation of many NLRP3 inflammatory bodies, which may be related to amyloid β peptide and aggregation of misfolded proteins. Autophagy is an important regulator of inflammatory bodies.

Type I interferons modulate autophagy to shape gemcitabine response in pancreatic cancer cells

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Type I interferons differentially modulate autophagy and the response of pancreatic cancer cells to gemcitabine. IFNα2b stimulates autophagic flux and protects cells from gemcitabine‐induced cell death, contributing to chemoresistance. In contrast, IFNβ1a inhibits autophagosome formation and enhances gemcitabine‐induced cell death, resulting in ...

Lysosome Targeting RedGreen-assay: Selective Autophagy Sensing Assay for Mammalian Cells

open access: yesBio-Protocol, 2019
The process of autophagy is an essential cellular mechanism, required to maintain general cell health through the removal of dysfunctional organelles, such as the ER, peroxisomes and mitochondria, as well as protein aggregates, and bacteria. Autophagy is

TRPML1 agonist ML‐SA5 attenuates pulmonary fibroblast activation by suppressing mTOR and restoring autophagic flux

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
TGF‐β1 stimulation downregulates lysosomal channel TRPML1 in pulmonary fibroblasts. The TRPML1 agonist ML‐SA5 suppressed fibroblast‐to‐myofibroblast activation and collagen production. Mechanistically, ML‐SA5 inhibited mTOR phosphorylation, restored autophagic flux, and its effects were enhanced by rapamycin (mTOR inhibitor) and reversed by MHY1485 ...

Maintenance and Decline of Neuronal Lysosomal Function in Aging

open access: yesCells
Lysosomes are central effectors of cellular maintenance, integrating the degradation of damaged organelles and protein aggregates with macromolecule recycling and metabolic signaling.
