Promotion of tumorigenesis by heterozygous disruption of the beclin 1 autophagy gene

TL;DR: It is shown that heterozygous disruption of beclin 1 increases the frequency of spontaneous malignancies and accelerates the development of hepatitis B virus-induced premalignant lesions, providing genetic evidence that autophagy is a novel mechanism of cell-growth control and tumor suppression.
Journal ArticleDOI

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

The evolutionarily conserved domain of Beclin 1 is required for Vps34 binding, autophagy and tumor suppressor function.

TL;DR: An evolutionarily conserved domain of Beclin 1 is identified that is essential for Vps34 interaction, autophagy function, and tumor suppressor function and a connection between BeClin 1-associated Class III PI-3 kinase-dependent autphagy, but not VPS, function is suggested.
Journal ArticleDOI

Liver autophagy contributes to the maintenance of blood glucose and amino acid levels.

TL;DR: In mice, liver autophagy makes a significant contribution to the maintenance of blood glucose by converting amino acids to glucose via gluconeogenesis, and this results are the first to show that liver-specific autophagic proteolysis plays a role in blood glucose regulation.
