Tollip Deficiency Alters Atherosclerosis and Steatosis by Disrupting Lipophagy

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association, 2017
Background Compromised lipophagy with unknown mechanisms may be critically involved in the intracellular accumulation of lipids, contributing to elevated atherosclerosis and liver steatosis. We hypothesize that toll‐interacting protein (Tollip), a key innate immune molecule involved in the fusion of autolysosome, may play a ...

Autophagy Is Required for Glucose Homeostasis and Lung Tumor Maintenance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Macroautophagy (autophagy hereafter) recycles intracellular components to sustain mitochondrial metabolism that promotes the growth, stress tolerance, and malignancy of lung cancers, suggesting that autophagy inhibition may have antitumor activity.

MiR-223 enhances lipophagy by suppressing CTSB in microglia following lysolecithin-induced demyelination in mice

open access: yesLipids in Health and Disease
Background Lipid droplet (LD)-laden microglia is a key pathological hallmark of multiple sclerosis. The recent discovery of this novel microglial subtype, lipid-droplet-accumulating microglia (LDAM), is notable for increased inflammatory factor secretion

Stat3 controls cell death during mammary gland involution by regulating uptake of milk fat globules and lysosomal membrane permeabilization. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We have previously demonstrated that Stat3 regulates lysosomal-mediated programmed cell death (LM-PCD) during mouse mammary gland involution in vivo. However, the mechanism that controls the release of lysosomal cathepsins to initiate cell death in this ...

Autophagy in the light of sphingolipid metabolism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Maintenance of cellular homeostasis requires tight and coordinated control of numerous metabolic pathways, which are governed by interconnected networks of signaling pathways and energy-sensing regulators.

Microlipophagy from Simple to Complex Eukaryotes

open access: yesCells
Lipophagy is a selective degradation of lipid droplets in lysosomes or vacuoles. Apart from its role in generating energy and free fatty acids for membrane repair, growth, and the formation of new membranes, lipophagy emerges as a key player in other ...

All-trans retinoic acid induces lipophagy by reducing Rubicon in Hepa1c1c7 cells

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research
All-trans retinoic acid (atRA), a metabolite of vitamin A, reduces hepatic lipid accumulation in liver steatosis model animals. Lipophagy, a new lipolysis pathway, degrades a lipid droplet (LD) via autophagy in adipose tissue and the liver.

Neuronal Proteomic Analysis Of The Ubiquitinated Substrates Of The Disease-Linked E3 Ligases Parkin And Ube3a [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Both Parkin and UBE3A are E3 ubiquitin ligases whose mutations result in severe brain dysfunction. Several of their substrates have been identified using cell culture models in combination with proteasome inhibitors, but not in more physiological ...

Targeting Adipose Tissue Lipid Metabolism to Improve Glucose Metabolism in Cardiometabolic Disease [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Medical Journal Diabetes, 2014
With Type 2 diabetes mellitus and cardiovascular disease prevalence on the rise, there is a growing need for improved strategies to prevent or treat obesity and insulin resistance, both of which are major risk factors for these chronic diseases ...
