The histone chaperones Nap1 and Vps75 bind histones H3 and H4 in a tetrameric conformation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Histone chaperones physically interact with histones to direct proper assembly and disassembly of nucleosomes regulating diverse nuclear processes such as DNA replication, promoter remodeling, transcription elongation, DNA damage, and histone variant ...

The essential role of CCT2 in the regulation of aggrephagy

open access: yesFrontiers in Aging Neuroscience
Protein aggregation, a defining characteristic of numerous human diseases, poses a significant challenge to cellular health. Autophagy, an essential cellular recycling process, specifically targets and degrades these harmful protein aggregates through a ...

Advance of autophagy in chronic kidney diseases

open access: yesRenal Failure, 2017
Autophagy, a highly conserved mechanism for cell survival, emerges as an important pathway in many biological processes and diseases conditions. Studies of cultured renal cells, human kidney tissues and experimental animal models implicate that autophagy

Elastase induces lung epithelial cell autophagy through placental growth factor A new insight of emphysema pathogenesis

open access: yes, 2017
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a devastating disease, which is associated with increasing mortality and morbidity. Therefore, there is a need to clearly define the COPD pathogenic mechanism and to explore effective therapies.

Lipid Droplets in Health and Disease

open access: yesLipids in Health and Disease, 2017
Lipids are essential building blocks synthesized by complex molecular pathways and deposited as lipid droplets (LDs) in cells. LDs are evolutionary conserved organelles found in almost all organisms, from bacteria to mammals.

Chaperone-mediated autophagy and its role in aging [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
This review focuses on chaperone-mediated autophagy (CMA). This catabolic process promotes the degradation of intracellular proteins in lysosomes.

Boosting chaperone-mediated autophagy in vivo mitigates alpha-synuclein-induced neurodegeneration

open access: yes, 2013
alpha-Synuclein levels are critical to Parkinson's disease pathogenesis. Wild-type alpha-synuclein is degraded partly by chaperone-mediated autophagy, and aberrant alpha-synuclein may act as an inhibitor of the pathway.

Monitoring spatiotemporal changes in chaperone-mediated autophagy in vivo

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Chaperone mediated autophagy (CMA) is selective but its activity in different tissue types has been unclear due to a lack of tools. Here, the authors generate transgenic mice expressing a CMA reporter that provides spatial and temporal in vivo data ...

Chaperone-Mediated Autophagy in Neurodegenerative Diseases: Molecular Mechanisms and Pharmacological Opportunities

open access: yes, 2022
Chaperone-mediated autophagy (CMA) is a protein degradation mechanism through lysosomes. By targeting the KFERQ motif of the substrate, CMA is responsible for the degradation of about 30% of cytosolic proteins, including a series of proteins associated ...
