Beclin 1-independent autophagy contributes to apoptosis in cortical neurons

open access: yes, 2011
Neuronal autophagy is enhanced in many neurological conditions, such as cerebral ischemia and traumatic brain injury, but its role in associated neuronal death is controversial, especially under conditions of apoptosis. We therefore investigated the role

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.

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 ...

Immunohistochemical and bioinformatics analysis of the placental BCL-2 and Beclin-1 expressions in preeclampsia and HELLP syndrome

open access: yesJournal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology
Background This study aimed to examine the alterations in apoptosis and autophagy in placental tissues from normal pregnancies compared to those affected by preeclampsia (PE) and HELLP (haemolysis, elevated liver enzymes, low platelets) syndrome.

Mitochondrial Ca2+ uniporter haploinsufficiency leads to sexually dimorphic redox imbalance and metabolic remodelling in the mouse brain

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend The genetic inactivation of one Mcu allele leads to sex‐specific changes in neuronal function in adult mice, that is, the firing of action potentials and the relationship between cytosolic and mitochondrial Ca2+ levels. The ability to produce NAD(P)H by stimulated neural tissue is largely preserved in male mice but delayed in ...

Stress reduction through cortical bone thickening improves bone mechanical behavior in adult female Beclin-1+/− mice

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology
Fragility fractures, which are more prevalent in women, may be significantly influenced by autophagy due to altered bone turnover. As an essential mediator of autophagy, Beclin-1 modulates bone homeostasis by regulating osteoclast and chondrocyte ...

Baicalin Alleviates Lactational Heat‐Stress‐Induced Hepatic Mitochondrial Dysfunction via Sirt3‐Dependent Deacetylation of NDUFS1

open access: yesFood Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 6, November 2026.
This study reveals that lactational HS suppresses Sirt3 activity, leading to hyperacetylation of the complex I subunit NDUFS1, and excessive mitochondrial ROS production, whereas BAI, a nature food‐derived bioactive compound, alleviates lactational HS‐induced hepatic mitochondrial injury by activating the Sirt3–NDUFS1 axis to deacetylate mitochondrial ...

Beneficial Role of Natural Polyphenols Against Epilepsy: Greasing the Wheels of Pharmacotherapy Research for Epilepsy

open access: yesFood Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 6, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Epilepsy is the most disabling neurological disease that affects all economic classes, age groups, regions, and races. Although many antiseizure drugs are approved for epilepsy treatment, they fail to work in about 30%–40% of patients. Thus, there is a great need to identify better pharmacological agents to treat epilepsy.

Histone deacetylase inhibitors as venetoclax‐sensitising partners in acute myeloid leukaemia: Mechanisms, pharmacology and translational perspectives

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 21, Page 6261-6290, November 2026.
Abstract Venetoclax combined with hypomethylating agents has improved treatment for older or unfit patients with acute myeloid leukaemia (AML), but resistance and relapse remain common. This review analyses the rationale for combining venetoclax with inhibitors of histone deacetylase (HDAC).

The potential of Beclin 1 as a therapeutic target for the treatment of breast cancer.

open access: yes, 2017
INTRODUCTION: Beclin 1 plays a crucial role in autophagy via the Beclin 1 interactome, and is involved in various biological processes such as protein sorting, chemokinesis, and cell death. Via these biologic functions, Beclin 1 contributes to both tumor
