Regulation of Beclin 1-Mediated Autophagy by Oncogenic Tyrosine Kinases

open access: yes, 2020
Beclin 1 is a major regulator of autophagy, and it is a core component of the class III PI3K complexes. Beclin 1 is a highly conserved protein and its function is regulated in a number of ways, including post-translational modifications.

Beclin-1 is required for chromosome congression and proper outer kinetochore assembly. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
International audienceThe functions of Beclin-1 in macroautophagy, tumorigenesis and cytokinesis are thought to be mediated by its association with the PI3K-III complex.

Expression of beclin 1 in primary salivary adenoid cystic carcinoma and its relation to Bcl-2 and p53 and prognosis

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2014
Beclin 1 plays a critical role in autophagy and functions as a haploinsufficient tumor suppressor. The expression and prognostic significance of beclin 1 in head and neck adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC) are largely unexplored.

TRPML1 agonist ML‐SA5 attenuates pulmonary fibroblast activation by suppressing mTOR and restoring autophagic flux

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
TGF‐β1 stimulation downregulates lysosomal channel TRPML1 in pulmonary fibroblasts. The TRPML1 agonist ML‐SA5 suppressed fibroblast‐to‐myofibroblast activation and collagen production. Mechanistically, ML‐SA5 inhibited mTOR phosphorylation, restored autophagic flux, and its effects were enhanced by rapamycin (mTOR inhibitor) and reversed by MHY1485 ...

Knockout of Beclin 1 inhibits GAS internalization.

open access: yes, 2017
(A) Invasion rate of GAS in Beclin 1 KO cells. Both wild-type and Beclin 1 KO cells were infected with GAS (MOI = 100). At 1 h post-infection, cells were disrupted with distilled water and serial dilutions of cellular extracts were plated on THY agar ...

Identification of novel small molecule Beclin 1 mimetics activating autophagy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Anti-apoptotic proteins Bcl-2 and Bcl-xL could block autophagy by binding to Beclin 1 protein, an essential inducer of autophagy. Compounds mimicking Beclin 1 might be able to disrupt Bcl-xL/2-Beclin 1 interaction, free out Beclin 1, and thus trigger ...

Regulation of Intracellular Accumulation of Mutant Huntingtin by Beclin 1 [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2006
Intracellular accumulation of mutant Huntingtin with expanded polyglutamine provides a context-dependent cytotoxicity critical for the pathogenesis of Huntington disease (Everett, C. M., and Wood, N. W. (2004) Brain 127, 2385-2405). Here we demonstrate that the accumulation of mutant Huntingtin is highly sensitive to the expression of beclin 1, a gene ...

β‐Catenin/c‐Myc Axis Modulates Autophagy Response to Different Ammonia Concentrations

open access: yesAdvanced Biology, Volume 9, Issue 3, March 2025.
Ammonia, detoxified by the liver into urea and glutamine, impacts autophagy differently at varying levels. Low ammonia activates autophagy via c‐Myc and β‐catenin, while high levels suppress it. Using Huh7 cells and Spf‐ash mice, c‐Myc's role in cytoprotective autophagy is revealed, offering insights into hyperammonemia and potential therapeutic ...

TRIM50 regulates Beclin 1 proautophagic activity

open access: yesBiochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular Cell Research, 2018
Autophagy is a catabolic process needed for maintaining cell viability and homeostasis in response to numerous stress conditions. Emerging evidence indicates that the ubiquitin system has a major role in this process. TRIMs, an E3 ligase protein family, contribute to selective autophagy acting as receptors and regulators of the autophagy proteins ...
