Journal ArticleDOI
TFE3 regulates whole-body energy metabolism in cooperation with TFEB.

TL;DR: Analysis of Tcfeb LiKO/Tfe3 double KO mice demonstrated that depletion of both TFE3 and TFEB results in additive effects with an exacerbation of the hepatic phenotype, indicating that TFE 3 and T FEB play a cooperative, rather than redundant, role in the control of the adaptive response of whole‐body metabolism to environmental cues such as diet and physical exercise.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nutrient-sensitive transcription factors TFEB and TFE3 couple autophagy and metabolism to the peripheral clock.
Nunzia Pastore,Nunzia Pastore,Anna Vainshtein,Anna Vainshtein,Niculin J. Herz,Niculin J. Herz,Tuong Huynh,Tuong Huynh,Lorenzo Brunetti,Lorenzo Brunetti,Tiemo J. Klisch,Tiemo J. Klisch,Margherita Mutarelli,Patrizia Annunziata,Kenichiro Kinouchi,Nicola Brunetti-Pierri,Paolo Sassone-Corsi,Andrea Ballabio +17 more
TL;DR: A direct link between nutrient and clock‐dependent regulation of gene expression is revealed shedding a new light on the crosstalk between autophagy, metabolism, and circadian cycles.
Journal ArticleDOI
TFEB regulates murine liver cell fate during development and regeneration

Moore,Carmine Settembre,Milton J. Finegold,Stuart J. Forbes,Andrea Ballabio +24 more
TL;DR: It is shown that TFEB regulates the progenitor/cholangiocyte lineage and that its depletion prevents tissue recovery upon injury, identifying an unexplored pathway that controls liver cell lineage commitment and whose dysregulation may play a role in biliary cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cyclosporin promotes neurorestoration and cell replacement therapy in pre-clinical models of Parkinson’s disease

TL;DR: This study provides compelling evidence in favor for the use of immunosuppression in all grafted PD patients receiving cell replacement therapy, regardless of the immunological mismatch between donor and host cells, and suggests that cyclosporine treatment itself may act as a disease-modifying therapy in all PD patients.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this paper , a vesicular trafficking hub connecting the Golgi and lysosome compartments was found to be a link between the M6P-dependent trafficking of lysOSomal enzymes and lysisomal reformation pathway, explaining the global impairment of lysisome function in Batten disease.
