14-3-3 proteins: an important regulator of autophagy in diseases.

TLDR
The role of 14-3-3 proteins in the control of autophagy in cancer, neurodegenerative diseases and other pathological conditions is summarized.
Abstract
Autophagy is a cell digestion process that determines cell fate by promoting cell survival or inducing cell death in a cell context-dependent manner. Several classical signaling pathways, such as phosphoinositide-3-kinase and mammalian target of rapamycin, tightly regulate autophagy. 14-3-3 proteins regulate various signaling pathways by phosphorylation-dependent binding with partner proteins. 14-3-3 proteins also regulate autophagy by binding with autophagy-related proteins such as Beclin-1 and hVPS34. This review summarizes the role of 14-3-3 proteins in the control of autophagy in cancer, neurodegenerative diseases and other pathological conditions.

Bcl-2 antiapoptotic proteins inhibit Beclin 1-dependent autophagy.

TL;DR: Bcl-2 not only functions as an antiapoptotic protein, but also as an antiautophagy protein via its inhibitory interaction with Beclin 1, which may help maintain autophagy at levels that are compatible with cell survival, rather than cell death.

Inhibition of mTOR induces autophagy and reduces toxicity of polyglutamine expansions in fly and mouse models of Huntington disease.

TL;DR: This work shows that mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) is sequestered in polyglutamine aggregates in cell models, transgenic mice and human brains, and provides proof-of-principle for the potential of inducing autophagy to treat Huntington disease.

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.
