Emerging roles of TFE3 in metabolic regulation

open access: yesCell Death Discovery, 2023
TFE3 is a member of the MiT family of the bHLH-leucine zipper transcription factor. We previously focused on the role of TFE3 in autophagy and cancer. Recently, an increasing number of studies have revealed that TFE3 plays an important role in metabolic ...

Autophagy: A Forty-Year Search for a Missing Membrane Source [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Autophagy is the major self-degradative process in eukaryotic cells, with fundamental roles in cellular and organismal homeostasis, and is involved in many developmental and pathological situations.

Autophagy in Platelets [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Anucleate platelets are produced by fragmentation of megakaryocytes. Platelets circulate in the bloodstream for a finite period: upon vessel injury, they are activated to participate in hemostasis; upon senescence, unused platelets are cleared. Platelet hypofunction leads to bleeding. Conversely, pathogenic platelet activation leads to occlusive events

Annexins: players of single cell wound healing and regeneration

open access: yesCommunicative & Integrative Biology, 2019
Cell life is defined by a thin 4 nm plasma membrane, which separates the interior of a cell from its environment. Thus, disruption of the plasma membrane poses a critical risk to cells, which requires immediate repair to avoid uncontrolled osmotic lysis ...

Autophagy and Tumorigenesis [PDF]

open access: yesSeminars in Immunopathology, 2010
Autophagy, a catabolic process involved in the sequestration and lysosomal degradation of cytoplasmic contents, is crucial for cellular homeostasis. The current literature supports that autophagy plays diverse roles in the development, maintenance, and progression of tumors.

Atg8ylation as a general membrane stress and remodeling response

open access: yesCell Stress, 2021
The yeast Atg8 protein and its paralogs in mammals, mammalian Atg8s (mAtg8s), have been primarily appreciated for their participation in autophagy. However, lipidated mAtg8s, including the most frequently used autophagosomal membrane marker LC3B, are ...

Autophagy-Associated Immunogenic Modulation and Its Applications in Cancer Therapy

open access: yes, 2022
Autophagy, a lysosome-mediated cellular degradation pathway, recycles intracellular components to maintain metabolic balance and survival. Autophagy plays an important role in tumor immunotherapy as a “double-edged sword” that can both promote and ...

A Vitamin for Autophagy [PDF]

open access: yesCell Host & Microbe, 2009
Recent discoveries have revealed the importance of the vitamin D-dependent generation of antimicrobial peptides in human host defense against Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Now, Yuk et al. (2009) show how vitamin D induces autophagy and mediates colocalization of Mycobacterium tuberculosis and antimicrobial peptides within an autophagolysosome, leading to

Zinc Finger Transcription Factor MZF1—A Specific Regulator of Cancer Invasion

open access: yesCells, 2020
Over 90% of cancer deaths are due to cancer cells metastasizing into other organs. Invasion is a prerequisite for metastasis formation. Thus, inhibition of invasion can be an efficient way to prevent disease progression in these patients.
