Measuring Autophagic Cargo Flux with Keima-Based Probes

open access: yes, 2022
Autophagy and autophagy-associated genes are implicated in a growing list of cellular, physiological, and pathophysiological processes and conditions. Therefore, it is ever more important to be able to reliably monitor and quantify autophagic activity. Whereas autophagic markers, such as LC3 can provide general indications about autophagy, specific and

Snazarus and its human ortholog SNX25 modulate autophagic flux

open access: yesJournal of Cell Science, 2021
ABSTRACT Macroautophagy, the degradation and recycling of cytosolic components in the lysosome, is an important cellular mechanism. It is a membrane-mediated process that is linked to vesicular trafficking events. The sorting nexin (SNX) protein family controls the sorting of a large array of cargoes, and various SNXs impact autophagy ...

Cell type-specific autophagy in human leukocytes: signatures of aging, sex, and nutrient restriction

open access: yesAutophagy Reports
Macroautophagy (referred to here as autophagy) is thought to play a critical role in aging and age-related disease, making it a priority for development of targeted human therapies. We developed a flow cytometry-based method to measure autophagic flux in

Metformin-Enhanced Cardiac AMP-Activated Protein Kinase/Atrogin-1 Pathways Inhibit Charged Multivesicular Body Protein 2B Accumulation in Ischemia–Reperfusion Injury

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Background: Cardiac autophagic flux is impaired during myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (MI/R). Impaired autophagic flux may exacerbate MI/R injury. Charged multivesicular body protein 2B (CHMP2B) is a subunit of the endosomal sorting complex required for

Fucosylation of LAMP-1 and LAMP-2 by FUT1 correlates with lysosomal positioning and autophagic flux of breast cancer cells. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Alpha1,2-fucosyltransferases, FUT1 and FUT2, which transfer fucoses onto the terminal galactose of N-acetyl-lactosamine via α1,2-linkage have been shown to be highly expressed in various types of cancers.

The mitochondrial protease HtrA2 restricts the NLRP3 and AIM2 inflammasomes. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Activation of the inflammasome pathway is crucial for effective intracellular host defense. The mitochondrial network plays an important role in inflammasome regulation but the mechanisms linking mitochondrial homeostasis to attenuation of inflammasome ...

Lysosome‐Acidifying Nanoparticles Rescue A30P α‐Synuclein Induced Neuronal Death in Cellular and Drosophila Models of Parkinson's Disease

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Lysosome‐targeted acidic nanoparticles based on a biodegradable poly(ethylene tetrafluorosuccinate‐co‐succinate) copolymer are engineered to restore impaired lysosomal acidification through pH‐responsive intracellular degradation. Localized acid release enhances autophagic proteolysis, reduces α‐synuclein accumulation, and preserves dopaminergic neuron

Quantitative Analysis of Autophagic Flux by Ratiometric pH-Imaging of Autophagic Intermediates [PDF]

open access: yesBiophysical Journal, 2016
Although numerous techniques have been developed to monitor autophagy to probe its cellular functions, these methods can’t evaluate in sufficient detail the autophagy process, and suffer limitations from complex experimental setups and/or systematic errors.

ALK inhibition activates LC3B-independent, protective autophagy in EML4-ALK positive lung cancer cells

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
ALK inhibitors effectively target EML4-ALK positive non-small cell lung cancer, but their effects are hampered by treatment resistance. In the present study, we asked whether ALK inhibition affects autophagy, and whether this may influence treatment ...
