Journal ArticleDOI

Interplay of endoplasmic reticulum stress and autophagy in neurodegenerative disorders

TL;DR: This review highlights recent advances in the field on the role of ER stress and autophagy in AD, prion diseases, PD, ALS and HAND with the involvement of key signaling pathways in these processes and implications for future development of therapeutic strategies.
Journal ArticleDOI

HIV-1 Tat Primes and Activates Microglial NLRP3 Inflammasome-Mediated Neuroinflammation

TL;DR: A novel role of Tat is demonstrated in priming and activating NLR family pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasomes in microglial cells and in HIV-Tg rats administered lipopolysaccharide, which suggests NLRP3 can be envisioned as a therapeutic target for ameliorating Tat-mediated neuroinflammation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cocaine-mediated microglial activation involves the ER stress-autophagy axis

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that cocaine exposure induced autophagy in both BV-2 and primary rat microglial cells as demonstrated by a dose- and time-dependent induction of autophile-signature proteins such as BECN1/Beclin 1, ATG5, and MAP1LC3B.
Journal ArticleDOI

Large-scale cDNA transfection screening for genes related to cancer development and progression

TL;DR: The present assay provides a direct genomewide functional screening method that offers a better understanding of the basic machinery of oncogenesis, including previously undescribed systemic regulatory mechanisms, and also provides a tool for gene discovery with potential clinical applications.
