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

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

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