Improving protein secretion with autophagy‐inhibiting or proteasome‐activating small molecules
Abstract BACKGROUND Therapeutic proteins are produced frequently by mammalian cells in large‐scale bioreactors. As a result, producer cells are exposed to a chemically (nutrients, gas exchange, target protein overexpression) and physically (shear due to mixing) stressful environment, which can lead to endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and loss of ...

Inhibition of LRRK2 kinase activity stimulates macroautophagy. [PDF]
Leucine Rich Repeat Kinase 2 (LRRK2) is one of the most important genetic contributors to Parkinson's disease. LRRK2 has been implicated in a number of cellular processes, including macroautophagy. To test whether LRRK2 has a role in regulating autophagy,

Global Proximity Interactome of the Human Macroautophagy Pathway
Macroautophagy is a highly conserved eukaryotic cellular pathway involving the engulfment of macromolecules, organelles, and invading microbes by a double-membrane compartment and subsequent lysosomal degradation.

Protein and Mitochondria Quality Control Mechanisms and Cardiac Aging
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the number one cause of death in the United States. Advancing age is a primary risk factor for developing CVD. Estimates indicate that 20% of the US population will be ≥65 years old by 2030.

Brassinin, a phytoalexin derived primarily from Chinese cabbage, exhibits potent anticancer activity against glioblastoma (GBM). Mechanistically, brassinin treatment elevates intracellular ROS levels in GBM cells, triggering two parallel outcomes: (i) direct induction of apoptosis, and (ii) suppression of cytoprotective autophagy through downregulation

E46K Mutant α-Synuclein Is Degraded by Both Proteasome and Macroautophagy Pathway
Genetic studies have revealed that rare mutations and multiplications of the gene locus in α-synuclein (α-syn) are implicated in the pathogenesis of Parkinson’s disease (PD).

Abstract Ninety percent of all primary liver malignancies are hepatocellular carcinomas (HCC), making liver cancer the third most common cause of cancer‐associated mortality. Different patterns of programmed cell death (PCD) are crucial for the survival of tumors, and they might serve as a prognostic marker for HCC.

Pbs2 regulates late‐stage macroautophagy in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Autophagy is crucial for maintaining cellular homeostasis and is linked to various diseases. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the Polymyxin B Sensitivity 2 (Pbs2) protein is a member of the mitogen‐activated protein kinase (MAPK) family and plays a role in ...

Intestinal epithelial CGAS dampens inflammation by upregulating autophagy
The pathogenesis of intestinal inflammation involves a complex network of cell signaling pathways. CGAS (cyclic GMP-AMP synthase) is a cytoplasmic DNA sensor that is most known for upregulating interferon-mediated inflammation.

This study shows that SDS and CAPB directly impair esophageal epithelial barrier integrity in primary EoE‐derived models. SDS induces stronger inflammatory, oxidative stress, and keratinization responses than CAPB. Both surfactants promote epithelial remodeling and partial epithelial‐mesenchymal transition (EMT), with CAPB showing a distinct ...
