Acylated Ghrelin is Protective Against 6-OHDA-induced Neurotoxicity by Regulating Autophagic Flux

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2021
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is one of the most common neurodegenerative disorders, and our previous study revealed that autophagic flux dysfunction contributes to the neuron death in 6-OHDA-induced PD models.

Rapamycin induces autophagic flux in neurons [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2010
Autophagy is a bulk degradation process initiated when cells engulf cytoplasm (including organelles) within double-membraned vesicles, called autophagosomes, that ultimately fuse to lysosomes, where their contents are degraded. Despite extensive data showing that mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) kinase inhibition by rapamycin induces autophagy in ...

The autophagic defect in Niemann–Pick disease type C neurons differs from somatic cells and reduces neuronal viability

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2014
Niemann–Pick disease type C (NPC) is a fatal, progressive neurovisceral disorder. Several studies report that the autophagic flux is disturbed in NPC1-deficient (NPC1−/−) cells. Since it has been suggested that the autophagic defect may contribute to the

RORα Enhances Lysosomal Acidification and Autophagic Flux in the Hepatocytes

open access: yesHepatology Communications, 2021
Lysosomes are intracellular acidic organelles with catabolic functions that contribute to the activation of autophagy. Although autophagy abnormality is associated with defects in lysosomal acidification during the progression of nonalcoholic fatty liver

Distinct roles in autophagy and importance in infectivity of the two ATG4 cysteine peptidases of leishmania major [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Macroautophagy in Leishmania, which is important for the cellular remodeling required during differentiation, relies upon the hydrolytic activity of two ATG4 cysteine peptidases (ATG4.1 and ATG4.2).

The cholesterol 24-hydroxylase activates autophagy and decreases mutant huntingtin build-up in a neuroblastoma culture model of Huntington’s disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Objective Compromised brain cholesterol turnover and altered regulation of brain cholesterol metabolism have been allied with some neurodegenerative diseases, including Huntington’s disease (HD).

Epigallocatechin-3-gallate attenuates impairment of learning and memory in chronic unpredictable mild stress-treated rats by restoring hippocampal autophagic flux.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) is a major polyphenol in green tea with beneficial effects on the impairment in learning and memory. Autophagy is a cellular process that protects neurons from stressful conditions.

Mycophenolic acid (MPA) modulates host cellular autophagy progression in sub genomic dengue virus-2 replicon cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Cellular autophagy (Macrophagy) is a self-degradative process, executed through the network of autophagy associated genes (ATGs) encoded proteins. Both in vitro and in vivo studies suggest that dengue virus (DENV) induces autophagy and supports the viral

Trehalose alleviates the phenotype of Machado–Joseph disease mouse models [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Machado-Joseph disease (MJD), also known as spinocerebellar ataxia type 3, is the most common of the dominantly inherited ataxias worldwide and is characterized by mutant ataxin-3 aggregation and neuronal degeneration.

CAGE-miR-140-5p-Wnt1 Axis Regulates Autophagic Flux, Tumorigenic Potential of Mouse Colon Cancer Cells and Cellular Interactions Mediated by Exosomes

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2019
Although the cancer/testis antigen CAGE has been implicated in tumorigenesis, the molecular mechanisms of CAGE-promoted tumorigenesis remain largely unknown.
