Mitophagy: An Emerging Role in Aging and Age-Associated Diseases.

TL;DR: There is increasing evidence that mitophagy is significantly impaired in several human pathologies including aging and age-related diseases such as neurodegenerative disorders, cardiovascular pathologies and cancer and therapeutic interventions aiming at the induction of mitophile may have the potency to ameliorate these dysfunctions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Autophagy inhibition radiosensitizes in vitro, yet reduces radioresponses in vivo due to deficient immunogenic signalling.

TL;DR: The results reveal that beyond its cytoprotective function, autophagy confers immunogenic properties to tumours, hence amplifying the efficacy of radiotherapy in an immunocompetent context, and has far-reaching implications for the development of pharmacological radiosensitizers.
Journal ArticleDOI

Trial Watch: Experimental Toll-like receptor agonists for cancer therapy.

TL;DR: The role of TLRs in innate and cognate immunity is presented and the progress of clinical studies evaluating the safety and efficacy of experimental TLR agonists as immunostimulatory agents for oncological indications is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Why yeast cells can undergo apoptosis: death in times of peace, love, and war

TL;DR: Yeast apoptosis during aging, mating, or exposure to killer toxins is described, underscoring the evolutionary benefit of a cell suicide program in yeast and, thus, giving a unicellular organism causes to die for.
