Beyond self-eating: The control of nonautophagic functions and signaling pathways by autophagy-related proteins. [PDF]
The identification of conserved autophagy-related proteins (ATGs) that mediate bulk degradation of cytosolic material laid the foundation for breakthroughs linking autophagy to a litany of physiological processes and disease conditions.

The structure of Atg4B–LC3 complex reveals the mechanism of LC3 processing and delipidation during autophagy [PDF]
Atg8 is conjugated to phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) by ubiquitin-like conjugation reactions. Atg8 has at least two functions in autophagy: membrane biogenesis and target recognition. Regulation of PE conjugation and deconjugation of Atg8 is crucial for these functions in which Atg4 has a critical function by both processing Atg8 precursors and ...

This study demonstrates that ALY688, a drug mimicking the heart‐protective hormone adiponectin, reduces myocardial ischemia injury. ALY688 increases the production of extracellular vesicles, which carry protective cargo including adiponectin itself.

Membrane dynamics of ATG4B and LC3 in autophagosome formation
The biogenesis of autophagosomes provides the basis for macroautophagy to capture and degrade intracellular cargoes. Binding of the autophagy-related protein ATG8/LC3 to autophagic membranes is essential to autophagosome formation, which involves the ...

RETREG1‐Mediated Reticulophagy is Essential for Dendritic Cell Maturation and Function in Sepsis
Reticulophagy regulator 1 (RETREG1) maintains dendritic cell (DC) maturation and function in early sepsis. Mechanistically, activating transcription factor 6 (ATF6) acts as a direct transcription factor regulating RETREG1 expression in response to sepsis‐induced endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress.

Reconstitution of cargo-induced LC3 lipidation in mammalian selective autophagy
Reconstitution experiments show how different cargo receptors engage the autophagy machinery in unique ways to lipidate LC3. Selective autophagy of damaged mitochondria, protein aggregates, and other cargoes is essential for health.

Chloroquine plays a cell-dependent role in the response to treatment of pancreatic adenocarcinoma [PDF]
In this study, our aim is to assess the role played by autophagy and its inhibition in the different PDAC cellular compartments, and its involvement in chemo-resistance using primary human pancreatic cancer-derived cells (PCC) and Cancer Associated ...

NIBV Induces Incomplete Autophagy via AMPK‐TFEB, Causing Kidney Injury in Chicks
This study reveals that NIBV can inhibit the nuclear translocation of TFEB by suppressing the expression of AMPK, leading to the blockade of autophagolysosomal functions, in turn increasing NIBV replication and triggering severe kidney injury in chicks.
