Plant Polyphenols for Aging Health: Implication from Their Autophagy Modulating Properties in Age-Associated Diseases

open access: yesPharmaceuticals, 2021
Polyphenols are a family of naturally occurring organic compounds, majorly present in fruits, vegetables, and cereals, characterised by multiple phenol units, including flavonoids, tannic acid, and ellagitannin.

Beyond self-eating: The control of nonautophagic functions and signaling pathways by autophagy-related proteins. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The identification of conserved autophagy-related proteins (ATGs) that mediate bulk degradation of cytosolic material laid the foundation for breakthroughs linking autophagy to a litany of physiological processes and disease conditions.

Impairment of the autophagic flux in astrocytes intoxicated by trimethyltin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Autophagy is a lysosomal catabolic route for protein aggregates and damaged organelles which in different stress conditions, such as starvation, generally improves cell survival.

The Proteasomal Deubiquitinating Enzyme PSMD14 Regulates Macroautophagy by Controlling Golgi-to-ER Retrograde Transport [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Ubiquitination regulates several biological processes, however the role of specific members of the ubiquitinome on intracellular membrane trafficking is not yet fully understood.

Mechanisms of Autophagosome Biogenesis [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2012
Autophagy is a unique membrane trafficking process whereby newly formed membranes, termed phagophores, engulf parts of the cytoplasm leading to the production of double-membraned autophagosomes that get delivered to lysosomes for degradation. This catabolic pathway has been linked to numerous physiological and pathological conditions, such as ...

Pharmacological activation of SIRT6 triggers lethal autophagy in human cancer cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Sirtuin 6 (SIRT6) is a member of the NAD+-dependent class III deacetylase sirtuin family, which plays a key role in cancer by controlling transcription, genome stability, telomere integrity, DNA repair, and autophagy.

Autophagosome biogenesis requires SNAREs [PDF]

open access: yesAutophagy, 2011
We recently showed that phagophore biogenesis requires SNAREs. Our data indicate that the exocytic Q/t-SNAREs Sso1/2 and Sec9 are required for one of the earliest steps in autophagosome biogenesis, the homotypic fusion of Atg9-containing vesicles. We propose that this step precedes the formation of Atg9-containing tubulovesicular clusters (TVCs) that ...

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).

ER-driven membrane contact sites: Evolutionary conserved machineries for stress response and autophagy regulation?

open access: yesCommunicative & Integrative Biology, 2017
Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER), spreading in the whole cell cytoplasm, is a central player in eukaryotic cell homeostasis, from plants to mammals. Beside crucial functions, such as membrane lipids and proteins synthesis and outward transport, the ER is able ...

The ER–Golgi intermediate compartment is a key membrane source for the LC3 lipidation step of autophagosome biogenesis

open access: yeseLife, 2013
Autophagy is a catabolic process for bulk degradation of cytosolic materials mediated by double-membraned autophagosomes. The membrane determinant to initiate the formation of autophagosomes remains elusive.
