Harnessing ferroptosis from multilayer defense networks to nanoplatforms for specific cancer therapy
Nanomaterials target metabolically‐regulated ferroptosis for cancer therapy. Iron‐based or alternative nanoplatforms integrate ferroptosis with chemotherapy, immunotherapy, or radiotherapy. They enable stimulus‐responsive therapies (photothermal, photodynamic, sonodynamic) activated by near‐infrared, light, or ultrasound, achieving potent synergistic ...

Systematic Analysis of Autophagy Identifies Atg9 Vesicles as the Origin of the Phagophore
Autophagy is a catabolic pathway required for the clearance and recycling of cytoplasmic materials. Upregulation and dysfunction of autophagy contributes to the pathology of cancer and neurogenerative diseases, respectively.

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 ...

Kinetics of Atg2-mediated lipid transfer from the ER can account for phagophore expansion
The protein Atg2 has been proposed to form a membrane tether that mediates lipid transfer from the ER to the phagophore in autophagy. However, recent kinetic measurements on the human homolog ATG2A indicated a transport rate of only about one lipid per ...

The Role of Oxidative Stress in Periodontitis
Oxidative stress is involved in multiple chemical reactions that take place in different intracellular organelles: mitochondria, rough endoplasmic reticulum, peroxisomes, autophagy, and aging, and can be influenced by exogenous factors: nutrition, physical activity, psychological status, environmental conditions, microbiome, and drugs.

Membrane Contact Sites and Organelles Interaction in Plant Autophagy
Autophagy is an intracellular trafficking and degradation system for recycling of damaged organelles, mis-folded proteins and cytoplasmic constituents. Autophagy can be divided into non-selective autophagy and selective autophagy according to the cargo ...

Human erythroid differentiation requires VDAC1-mediated mitochondrial clearance
Erythroblast maturation in mammals is dependent on organelle clearance throughout terminal erythropoiesis. We studied the role of the outer mitochondrial membrane protein voltage-dependent anion channel-1 (VDAC1) in human terminal erythropoiesis.
