Beclin 1 mitigates motor and neuropathological deficits in genetic mouse models of Machado-Joseph disease [PDF]
, 2017 Machado-Joseph disease or spinocerebellar ataxia type 3, the most common dominantly-inherited spinocerebellar ataxia, results from translation of the polyglutamine-expanded and aggregation prone ataxin 3 protein.

Signal transducer and activator of transcription-1 localizes to the mitochondria and modulates mitophagy [PDF]
, 2013 The signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) proteins are latent transcription factors that have been shown to be involved in cell proliferation, development, apoptosis, and autophagy. STAT proteins undergo activation by phosphorylation at

Autophagy gene haploinsufficiency drives chromosome instability, increases migration, and promotes early ovarian tumors. [PDF]
, 2020 Autophagy, particularly with BECN1, has paradoxically been highlighted as tumor promoting in Ras-driven cancers, but potentially tumor suppressing in breast and ovarian cancers.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.G9a, and DNA Methyltransferase1 (DNMT1) cooperatively modulates E2F1 on the promoter of tumor suppressor p53‐binding protein 2 (TP53BP2) increased autophagy in preeclampsia. TP53BP2 promotes autophagy in trophoblasts through DNA methylation and H3K9me2‐mediated transcriptional regulation.

Beclin 1 Phosphorylation – at the Center of Autophagy Regulation
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2018 Autophagy is a tightly regulated catabolic process wherein cells under stress sequester cytosolic constituents like damaged proteins and organelles in double-membrane vesicles called autophagosomes.

Depletion of Beclin-1 Due to Proteolytic Cleavage by Caspases in the Alzheimer\u27s Disease Brain [PDF]
, 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).

Class III PI3K regulates organismal glucose homeostasis by providing negative feedback on hepatic insulin signalling. [PDF]
, 2015 Defective hepatic insulin receptor (IR) signalling is a pathogenic manifestation of metabolic disorders including obesity and diabetes. The endo/lysosomal trafficking system may coordinate insulin action and nutrient homeostasis by endocytosis of IR and ...

Inflachromene inhibits autophagy through modulation of Beclin 1 activity [PDF]
Journal of Cell Science, 2018 ABSTRACT Autophagy is a central intracellular catabolic mechanism that mediates the degradation of cytoplasmic proteins and organelles, and regulation of autophagy is essential for homeostasis. HMGB1 is an important sepsis mediator when secreted and also functions as an inducer of autophagy by binding to Beclin 1.
