Glycophagy is involved in cardiac glycogen regulation in response to exercise [PDF]
Cardiac glycogen-autophagy (‘glycophagy’) is disturbed in cardiometabolic pathologies. The physiological role of cardiac glycophagy is unclear. Exercise induces transient cardiac glycogen accumulation.

Stbd1 is highly elevated in skeletal muscle of Pompe disease mice but suppression of its expression does not affect lysosomal glycogen accumulation [PDF]
Previous studies strongly suggest that starch binding domain containing protein 1 (Stbd1) plays an important role in intracellular glycogen trafficking into lysosomes. We report here that Stbd1 expression is markedly increased in skeletal muscles but not in heart and liver of GAA-KO mice.

Chemical genetic screen identifies Gapex-5/GAPVD1 and STBD1 as novel AMPK substrates [PDF]
AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is a key regulator of cellular energy homeostasis, acting as a sensor of energy and nutrient status. As such, AMPK is considered a promising drug target for treatment of medical conditions particularly associated with metabolic dysfunctions. To better understand the downstream effectors and physiological consequences

Methods for detection of cardiac glycogen-autophagy [PDF]
Glycogen-autophagy (‘glycophagy’) is a selective autophagy process involved in delivering glycogen to the lysosome for bulk degradation. Glycophagy protein intermediaries include STBD1 as a glycogen tagging receptor, delivering the glycogen cargo into ...

Follicle-Stimulating Hormone Alleviates Ovarian Aging by Modulating Mitophagy- and Glycophagy-Based Energy Metabolism in Hens [PDF]
As a predominant hormone in the reproductive axis, follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) is known as the primary surviving factor for follicular growth. In this study, the alleviating effect of FSH on aging chicken granulosa cells (GCs) was investigated ...

Transcriptomic and Proteomic Analysis of Clear Cell Foci (CCF) in the Human Non-Cirrhotic Liver Identifies Several Differentially Expressed Genes and Proteins with Functions in Cancer Cell Biology and Glycogen Metabolism [PDF]
Clear cell foci (CCF) of the liver are considered to be pre-neoplastic lesions of hepatocellular adenomas and carcinomas. They are hallmarked by glycogen overload and activation of AKT (v-akt murine thymoma viral oncogene homolog)/mTOR (mammalian target ...

A two-stage meta-analysis identifies several new loci for Parkinson's disease. [PDF]
A previous genome-wide association (GWA) meta-analysis of 12,386 PD cases and 21,026 controls conducted by the International Parkinson's Disease Genomics Consortium (IPDGC) discovered or confirmed 11 Parkinson's disease (PD) loci.

Mouse Stbd1 is N-myristoylated and affects ER–mitochondria association and mitochondrial morphology [PDF]
ABSTRACT Starch binding domain-containing protein 1 (Stbd1) is a carbohydrate-binding protein that has been proposed to be a selective autophagy receptor for glycogen. Here, we show that mouse Stbd1 is a transmembrane endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-resident protein with the capacity to induce the formation of organized ER structures in HeLa ...

The “sweet” side of ER-mitochondria contact sites
The regions at which the ER and mitochondria come into close proximity, known as ER-mitochondria contact sites provide essential platforms for the exchange of molecules between the two organelles and the coordination of various fundamental cellular ...

Development of GABARAP family protein-sensitive LIR-based probes for neuronal autophagy
Autophagy allows for lysosomal cellular degradation of cytosolic components. In particular, neuronal autophagy is essential for cellular homeostasis and neuronal survival and is tightly regulated by several autophagy-related (ATG) proteins in post ...
