Autophagy and autophagy-related proteins in cancer [PDF]
Molecular Cancer, 2020 AbstractAutophagy, as a type II programmed cell death, plays crucial roles with autophagy-related (ATG) proteins in cancer. Up to now, the dual role of autophagy both in cancer progression and inhibition remains controversial, in which the numerous ATG proteins and their core complexes including ULK1/2 kinase core complex, autophagy-specific class III ...

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

Autophagy-monitoring and autophagy-deficient mice [PDF]
Autophagy, 2017 Discovery of yeast autophagy-related (ATG) genes and subsequent identification of their homologs in other organisms have enabled researchers to investigate physiological functions of macroautophagy/autophagy using genetic techniques. Specific identification of autophagy-related structures is important to evaluate autophagic activity, and specific ...

Autophagy and rheumatoid arthritis: Current knowledges and future perspectives [PDF]
, 2018 Autophagy is a degradation mechanism by which cells recycle cytoplasmic components to generate energy. By influencing lymphocyte development, survival, and proliferation, autophagy regulates the immune responses against self and non-self antigens ...

CERKL regulates autophagy via the NAD-dependent deacetylase SIRT1 [PDF]
, 2018 Macroautophagy/autophagy is an important intracellular mechanism for the maintenance of cellular homeostasis. Here we show that the CERKL (ceramide kinase like) gene, a retinal degeneration (RD) pathogenic gene, plays a critical role in regulating ...

Autophagy in Trypanosomatids [PDF]
Cells, 2012 Autophagy is a ubiquitous eukaryotic process that also occurs in trypanosomatid parasites, protist organisms belonging to the supergroup Excavata, distinct from the supergroup Opistokontha that includes mammals and fungi. Half of the known yeast and mammalian AuTophaGy (ATG) proteins were detected in trypanosomatids, although with low sequence ...

A strategy to combine pathway-targeted low toxicity drugs in ovarian cancer. [PDF]
, 2015 Serous Ovarian Cancers (SOC) are frequently resistant to programmed cell death. However, here we describe that these programmed death-resistant cells are nonetheless sensitive to agents that modulate autophagy.

Structure and Dynamics in the ATG8 Family From Experimental to Computational Techniques
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2020 Autophagy is a conserved and essential intracellular mechanism for the removal of damaged components. Since autophagy deregulation is linked to different kinds of pathologies, it is fundamental to gain knowledge on the fine molecular and structural ...
