Peri‐Implantitis and Periodontitis: Biological Convergence, Contextual Divergence

open access: yesJournal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
Periodontal and peri‐implant tissues differ and coincide in many aspects, from the clinical and radiological perspective, including histology, microbiology, and molecular markers. Thus, health and disease may also follow different and similar routes.

Autophagy-independent enhancing effects of Beclin 1 on cytotoxicity of ovarian cancer cells mediated by proteasome inhibitors

open access: yesBMC Cancer, 2012
Background The ubiquitin-proteasome system and macroautophagy (hereafter referred to autophagy) are two complementary pathways for protein degradation. Emerging evidence suggests that proteasome inhibition might be a promising approach for tumor therapy.

A Distinct Pattern of Beclin-1 Staining Helps Distinguish Sessile Serrated Adenomas [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Autophagy, a lysosomal degradation system, has both cell survival and cell death-promoting capabilities, and its versatility is exploited in many pathologic entities.

The Aging Heart: Mitophagy at the Center of Rejuvenation. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Aging is associated with structural and functional changes in the heart and is a major risk factor in developing cardiovascular disease. Many recent studies have focused on increasing our understanding of the basis of aging at the cellular and molecular ...

Negative Regulation of Vps34 by Cdk Mediated Phosphorylation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Vacuolar protein sorting 34 (Vps34) complexes, the class III PtdIns3 kinase, specifically phosphorylate the D3 position of PtdIns to produce PtdIns3P. Vps34 is involved in the control of multiple key intracellular membrane trafficking pathways including ...

Muscle wasting in cancer cachexia: Mechanisms and the role of exercise

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Cancer cachexia (CC) is a multifactorial disease marked by a severe and progressive loss of lean muscle mass and characterized further by inflammation and a negative energy/protein balance, ultimately leading to muscle atrophy and loss of muscle tissue.

Depletion of Beclin-1 due to proteolytic cleavage by caspases in the Alzheimer's disease brain

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2011
The Beclin-1 protein is essential for the initiation of autophagy, and recent studies suggest this function may be compromised in Alzheimer's disease (AD).

In Vitro and in vivo anti-tumoral effects of the flavonoid apigenin in malignant mesothelioma [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Malignant mesothelioma (MM) is a tumor arising from mesothelium. MM patients' survival is poor. The polyphenol 4',5,7,-trihydroxyflavone Apigenin (API) is a "multifunctional drug". Several studies have demonstrated API anti-tumoral effects.

One day of environment‐induced heat stress causes injury to the murine kidney

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Environment‐induced heat stress (EIHS) results from sustained body temperature elevation owing to prolonged exposure to heat and humidity. We hypothesized that EIHS would cause kidney injury and cellular dysfunction. To test this hypothesis, female C57 mice were exposed to EIHS (n = 14; 37.6°C, 42.0% relative humidity) or thermoneutral (TN ...

Autophagy-Related Beclin 1 and Head and Neck Cancers.

open access: yesOncoTargets and therapy, 2020
Beclin 1, a positive regulator of autophagy, behaves as a double-edged sword in tumorigenesis. Beclin 1 contributes to tumor suppression by removing defective or damaged organelles and other cellular components; however, its activity can also stimulate cancer initiation and progression.
