Guidelines for the use and interpretation of assays for monitoring autophagy (3rd edition)

Daniel J. Klionsky, +2522 more
- 21 Jan 2016 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a set of guidelines for the selection and interpretation of methods for use by investigators who aim to examine macro-autophagy and related processes, as well as for reviewers who need to provide realistic and reasonable critiques of papers that are focused on these processes.

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

Cysteine cathepsins: From structure, function and regulation to new frontiers

Vito Turk, +6 more
- 01 Jan 2012 - 
TL;DR: The view of cysteine cathepsins as lysosomal proteases is changing as there is now clear evidence of their localization in other cellular compartments, and some of the remarkable advances that have taken place in the past decade are presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Lysosomal Protease Pathways to Apoptosis: CLEAVAGE OF Bid, NOT PRO-CASPASES, IS THE MOST LIKELY ROUTE *

Veronika Stoka, +16 more
- 02 Feb 2001 - 
TL;DR: Data suggest that Bid represents a sensor that allows cells to initiate apoptosis in response to widespread adventitious proteolysis, supported by the finding that cytosolic extracts from mice ablated in the bid gene are impaired in the ability to release cytochrome c in Response to lysosome extracts.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cysteine Cathepsins Trigger Caspase-dependent Cell Death through Cleavage of Bid and Antiapoptotic Bcl-2 Homologues *

Gabriela Droga-Mazovec, +9 more
- 04 Jul 2008 - 
TL;DR: It is proposed that degradation of anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 family members by lysosomal cathepsins synergizes with cathepsypsin-mediated activation of Bid to trigger a mitochondrial pathway to apoptosis.
