Maintenance of Metabolic Homeostasis by Sestrin2 and Sestrin3

Reads0

TLDR
Sestrin2--encoded by the Sesn2 locus, whose expression is induced upon hypernutrition--maintains metabolic homeostasis in liver of obese mice, demonstrating an important homeostatic function for the stress-inducible Sestrin protein family in the control of mammalian lipid and glucose metabolism.

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.

Absence of S6K1 protects against age- and diet-induced obesity while enhancing insulin sensitivity. [Erratum: 2004 Sept. 23, v. 431, no. 7007, p. 485.]

TL;DR: In this article, S6K1-deficient mice are protected against obesity owing to enhanced β-oxidation, but on a high fat diet, levels of glucose and free fatty acids still rise in S6k1-dependent mice, resulting in insulin receptor desensitization.

Oxidative stress and autophagy: the clash between damage and metabolic needs

TL;DR: This review aims at providing novel insight into the regulatory pathways of autophagy in response to glucose and amino acid deprivation, as well as their tight interconnection with metabolic networks and redox homeostasis.

Overweight, obesity, and mortality from cancer in a prospectively studied cohort of U.S. adults.

TL;DR: Current patterns of overweight and obesity in the United States could account for 14 percent of all deaths from cancer in men and 20 percent of those in women, and increased body weight was associated with increased death rates for all cancers combined and for cancers at multiple specific sites.

AKT/PKB signaling: navigating downstream.

TL;DR: Those Akt substrates that are most likely to contribute to the diverse cellular roles of Akt, which include cell survival, growth, proliferation, angiogenesis, metabolism, and migration are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease.

TL;DR: Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease is associated with an increased risk of all-cause death, probably because of complications of insulin resistance such as vascular disease, as well as due to cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma, which occurs in a minority of patients.

Autophagy: Renovation of Cells and Tissues

TL;DR: It is explored how recent mouse models in combination with advances in human genetics are providing key insights into how the impairment or activation of autophagy contributes to pathogenesis of diverse diseases, from neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson disease to inflammatory disorders such as Crohn disease.

mTOR: from growth signal integration to cancer, diabetes and ageing

TL;DR: Mammalian TOR complex 1 (mTORC1) and mTORC2 exert their actions by regulating other important kinases, such as S6 kinase (S6K) and Akt.
