Live and recent posts from across the Fediverse tagged #autophagy, aggregated by home.social.

  1. Are #autophagy-related proteins involved in #GenomeStability? This study shows that Atg11 has an essential non-canonical function in error-free #chromosome segregation via the Kar9-dependent spindle positioning pathway @PLOSBiology plos.io/4lfbeP1

  2. Caspases have well known roles in #apoptosis, but roles in other cellular processes are emerging... This study shows that #caspase -3 & -7 promote cytoprotective #autophagy in response to non-lethal stress by modulating PARP1 activity in #BreastCancer cells #plosbiology plos.io/41xfLVm

  3. `Through unbiased analyses of #RNA and protein profiles in #Inositol polyphosphate-5-phosphatase D (INPP5D) -disrupted iPSC-derived human #microglia, we find that reduction in INPP5D activity is associated with molecular profiles consistent with disrupted #autophagy and #inflammasome activation.. findings provide insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying microglia-mediated processes in #AD and highlight the inflammasome as a potential #therapeutic target`

  4. "Here, we demonstrate that damaged #lysosomal #membranes are repaired by #microautophagy (a process termed “microlysophagy”) and identify key regulators of the first and last steps. We reveal the AGC #kinase STK38 as a novel microlysophagy regulator...microlysophagy is regulated by STK38 and GABARAPs and could be essential for maintaining lysosomal integrity and preventing #aging."
