Biochemical and Genetic Studies of Beclin 1 Function in Autophagy [PDF]
Beclin 1 is a mammalian autophagy protein and has important functions in development, tumor suppression and neurodegeneration. Beclin 1 exists in a protein complex with Vps34, which is a class III phosphatidylinositol (PtdIns) 3-kinase and mediates ...

ULK1 targets Beclin-1 in autophagy [PDF]
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 ...

Beclin-1 increases with obstructive sleep apnea severity
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 ...

Short-term fenofibrate treatment improves ultrastructure of hepatocytes of old rats
INTRODUCTION: Fenofibrate (FN) is a hypolipemic drug used for the treatment of mixed dyslipidemia. Since in our previous study FN administration to young and old rats adversely affected the serum activity of liver marker enzymes, we decided to examine ...

Malformin A1–mediated cytotoxicity in ovarian cancer cells occurs through pyroptosis and autophagy
This study investigated the effects of the natural compound Malformin A1 (MA1) on the cytoskeleton that regulates cell proliferation and migration. Disruption of the cytoskeleton can impair these processes and promote cancer cell death. MA1 disrupted cytoskeletal organization, induced DNA damage, inflammation, activated autophagy, and pyroptosis ...

Beclin 1+/− does not accelerate lymphoma formation.
A) Primary thymocytes were isolated from mice of the indicated genotypes. Immunoblots for Beclin 1, and actin as a loading control are shown. The ratio of Beclin 1 to actin for each mouse is shown below the immunoblots. Kaplan-Meier analysis for lymphoma

Type I interferons modulate autophagy to shape gemcitabine response in pancreatic cancer cells
Type I interferons differentially modulate autophagy and the response of pancreatic cancer cells to gemcitabine. IFNα2b stimulates autophagic flux and protects cells from gemcitabine‐induced cell death, contributing to chemoresistance. In contrast, IFNβ1a inhibits autophagosome formation and enhances gemcitabine‐induced cell death, resulting in ...
