Molecular characterization of autophagic and apoptotic signaling induced by sorafenib in liver cancer cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Sorafenib is the unique accepted molecular targeted drug for the treatment of patients in advanced stage of hepatocellular carcinoma. The current study evaluated cell signaling regulation of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, c-Jun-N-terminal kinase (JNK)

ULK1 targets Beclin-1 in autophagy [PDF]

open access: yesNature Cell Biology, 2013
The substrates of mammalian ULK1/2 and its yeast homologue Atg1 in autophagy have remained elusive. The class III phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase component Beclin-1 has now been identified as a physiological substrate of the ULK kinases in autophagy following amino acid starvation, therefore suggesting a critical molecular link between the upstream ...

A tumor-associated mutation of FYVE-CENT prevents its interaction with Beclin 1 and interferes with cytokinesis. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
The tumor suppressor activity of Beclin 1 (BECN1), a subunit of class III phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase complex, has been attributed to its regulation of apoptosis and autophagy.

Quantitative assessment of cell fate decision between autophagy and apoptosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Autophagy and apoptosis are cellular processes that regulate cell survival and death, the former by eliminating dysfunctional components in the cell, the latter by programmed cell death.

Optimization of Beclin 1-Targeting Stapled Peptides by Staple Scanning Leads to Enhanced Antiproliferative Potency in Cancer Cells.

open access: yesJournal of Medicinal Chemistry, 2021
Beclin 1 is an essential autophagy gene and a haploinsufficient tumor suppressor. Beclin 1 is the scaffolding member of the Class III phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase complex (PI3KC3) and recruits two positive regulators Atg14L and UVRAG through its coiled ...

Beclin-1 increases with obstructive sleep apnea severity

open access: yesSleep Medicine, 2021
Obstructive sleep apnea is a common chronic disorder that leads to chronic intermittent hypoxia described as an important factor contributing to the pathogenesis of OSA-related comorbidities. Besides, recent data suggest that intermittent hypoxia can induce adaptative cardiovascular pathways inducing a relative resistance to ischemic insults ...

14-3-3Tau regulates Beclin 1 and is required for autophagy.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
BackgroundBeclin 1 plays an essential role in autophagy; however, the regulation of Beclin 1 expression remains largely unexplored. An earlier ChIP-on-chip study suggested Beclin 1 could be an E2F target.

Decreased expression of Beclin 1 correlates closely with Bcl-xL expression and poor prognosis of ovarian carcinoma. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
It has been suggested that autophagy-related Beclin 1 plays a critical role in the regulation of tumor development and/or progression, but its prognostic significance and relationship with Bcl-xL expression in ovarian carcinoma are unclear.In the present

(±)-Gossypol induces apoptosis and autophagy in head and neck carcinoma cell lines and inhibits the growth of transplanted salivary gland cancer cells in BALB/c mice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Racemic Gossypol [(±)-GOS], composed of both (-)-GOS and (+)-GOS, is a small BH3-mimetic polyphenol derived from cotton seeds. (±)-GOS has been employed and well tolerated by cancer patients. Head and neck carcinoma (HNC) represents one of the most fatal

An infection-induced RhoB-Beclin 1-Hsp90 complex enhances clearance of uropathogenic Escherichia coli

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Host cells use several anti-bacterial pathways to defend against pathogens. Here, using a uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) infection model, we demonstrate that bacterial infection upregulates RhoB, which subsequently promotes intracellular bacteria ...
