Cytotoxic effect of Ziziphus Spina-Christi extract alone and in combination with doxorubicin on breast cancer cells [PDF]
Ziziphus Spina-Christi (L.) (ZSC) is a traditional Arabian medicinal plant used to treat inflammatory symptoms, swellings and pain since long. Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a form of cancer with a poor prognosis owing to the paucity of therapy ...

Selective autophagy is a process whereby specific targeted cargo proteins, aggregates, or organelles are sequestered into double-membrane-bound phagophores before fusion with the lysosome for protein degradation.

Segregation of pathways leading to pexophagy
Pexophagy occurs via distinct NIX- and USP30/NBR1-dependent pathways. Peroxisomes are organelles with key roles in metabolism including long-chain fatty acid production.

Misfolded proteins are ubquitinated and subsequently condensed by cargo receptors for selective autophagy. Here, the authors use in vitro reconstitution to elegantly dissect how the receptors p62/SQSTM1, NBR1 and TAX1BP1 contribute to p62-ubiquitin ...

Loss of p62 impairs recruitment of NBR1 to MDBs.
(A). The scheme (modified from [34]) depicts the protein domain architecture of NBR1 and p62. The reported interaction partners and conserved domains are highlighted by double headed arrows and gray boxes, respectively.

Arabidopsis cargo receptor NBR1 mediates selective autophagy of defective proteins [PDF]
Arabidopsis cargo receptor NBR1 contributes to protein quality control by promoting the formation of protein aggregates and mediating their clearance via selective autophagy.

Nbr1, a Receptor for ESCRT-Dependent Endosomal Microautophagy in Fission Yeast [PDF]
In this issue of Molecular Cell, Liu et al. (2015) report that fission yeast Nbr1, sharing a partial homology to the mammalian macroautophagy receptor NBR1, acts as a receptor for ESCRT-dependent endosomal microautophagy that delivers two hydrolytic enzymes from the cytosol to the vacuole.

NBR1‐mediated p62‐liquid droplets enhance the Keap1‐Nrf2 system
p62/SQSTM1 is a multivalent protein that has the ability to cause liquid-liquid phase separation and serves as a receptor protein that participates in cargo isolation during selective autophagy. This protein is also involved in the non-canonical activation of the Keap1-Nrf2 system, a major oxidative stress response pathway.

NBR1 is dispensable for PARK2-mediated mitophagy regardless of the presence or absence of SQSTM1 [PDF]
AbstractDegradation of malfunctional mitochondria by mitophagy is a pivotal component of mitochondrial quality control to maintain cellular homeostasis. Mitochondrial clearance through the PINK1/PARK2 pathway is mediated by autophagic adaptor proteins.
