Breaking fat: The regulation and mechanisms of lipophagy [PDF]

open access: yesBiochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular and Cell Biology of Lipids, 2017
Lipophagy is defined as the autophagic degradation of intracellular lipid droplets (LDs). While the field of lipophagy research is relatively young, an expansion of research in this area over the past several years has greatly advanced our understanding of lipophagy.

Regulation of lipid stores and metabolism by lipophagy [PDF]

open access: yesCell Death & Differentiation, 2012
Intracellular lipids are stored in lipid droplets (LDs) and metabolized by cytoplasmic neutral hydrolases to supply lipids for cell use. Recently, an alternative pathway of lipid metabolism through the lysosomal degradative pathway of autophagy has been described and termed lipophagy.

Lipid metabolism and lipophagy in cancer

open access: yesBiochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 2018
The tumor microenvironment can be hypoxic, acidic, and deficient in nutrients, thus causing the metabolism of tumor cells as well as the neighboring stromal cells to be remodelled to facilitate tumor survival, proliferation, and metastasis. Abnormal tumor lipid metabolism is a fairly new field, which has received attention in the past few years.

Mycophenolic acid (MPA) modulates host cellular autophagy progression in sub genomic dengue virus-2 replicon cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Cellular autophagy (Macrophagy) is a self-degradative process, executed through the network of autophagy associated genes (ATGs) encoded proteins. Both in vitro and in vivo studies suggest that dengue virus (DENV) induces autophagy and supports the viral

Lysosomal acid lipase: at the crossroads of normal and atherogenic cholesterol metabolism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Unregulated cellular uptake of apolipoprotein B-containing lipoproteins in the arterial intima leads to the formation of foam cells in atherosclerosis. Lysosomal acid lipase (LAL) plays a crucial role in both lipoprotein lipid catabolism and excess lipid

Resveratrol promotes hepatic lipid decomposition by regulating ATGL/CGI58 and Rab7/LC3β through perilipin 2

open access: yes陆军军医大学学报, 2023
Objective To investigate the effect of resveratrol (RSV) on enhancing hepatic lipolysis and lipophagy through perilipin 2 (PLIN2), and elucidate its underlying mechanism.

Lipolysis and lipophagy in lipid storage myopathies

open access: yesBiochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular Basis of Disease, 2016
Triglycerides droplets are massively stored in muscle in Lipid Storage Myopathies (LSM). We studied in muscle regulators of lipophagy, the expression of the transcription factor-EB (TFEB) (a master regulator of lysosomal biogenesis), and markers of autophagy which are induced by starvation and exert a transcriptional control on lipid catabolism.We ...

Ltc1 is an ER-localized sterol transporter and a component of ER-mitochondria and ER-vacuole contacts. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Organelle contact sites perform fundamental functions in cells, including lipid and ion homeostasis, membrane dynamics, and signaling. Using a forward proteomics approach in yeast, we identified new ER-mitochondria and ER-vacuole contacts specified by an

Chloroplast damage induced by the inhibition of fatty acid synthesis triggers autophagy in chlamydomonas [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Fatty acids are synthesized in the stroma of plant and algal chloroplasts by the fatty acid synthase complex. Newly synthesized fatty acids are then used to generate plastidial lipids that are essential for chloroplast structure and function.
