Guidelines for the use and interpretation of assays for monitoring autophagy (4th edition)

Daniel J. Klionsky, +2983 more
- 08 Feb 2021 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a set of guidelines for investigators to select and interpret methods to examine autophagy and related processes, and for reviewers to provide realistic and reasonable critiques of reports that are focused on these processes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Acid sphingomyelinase activity triggers microparticle release from glial cells.

TL;DR: The results represent the first demonstration that activation of acid sphingomyelinase is necessary and sufficient for microparticle release from glial cells and define key molecular effectors of microparticles formation and IL‐1β release, thus, opening new strategies for the treatment of neuroinflammatory diseases.
Journal ArticleDOI

Microvesicles released from microglia stimulate synaptic activity via enhanced sphingolipid metabolism

TL;DR: Analysis of spontaneous release of glutamate in neurons exposed to MVs found a dose‐dependent increase in miniature excitatory postsynaptic current (mEPSC) frequency without changes in mEpsC amplitude, and identifies microglia‐derived MVs as a new mechanism by which microglian influence synaptic activity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nitric oxide release combined with nonsteroidal antiinflammatory activity prevents muscular dystrophy pathology and enhances stem cell therapy

TL;DR: In both models, HCT 1026 significantly ameliorated the morphological, biochemical, and functional phenotype in the absence of secondary effects, efficiently slowing down disease progression and setting the stage for combined therapies with donor or autologous, genetically corrected stem cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

The thyroid hormone triiodothyronine controls macrophage maturation and functions: protective role during inflammation.

TL;DR: The data suggest that the anti-inflammatory effect of T3 is coupled to the modulation of peritoneal macrophage content, in a context not fully explained by the M1/M2 framework.
