Guidelines for the use and interpretation of assays for monitoring autophagy

Daniel J. Klionsky, +1287 more
- 01 Apr 2012 - 
TL;DR: These guidelines are presented for the selection and interpretation of methods for use by investigators who aim to examine macroautophagy 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

Identification and Characterization of Multiple Osmotic Response Sequences in the Human Aldose Reductase Gene

Ben C.B. Ko, +4 more
- 27 Jun 1997 - 
TL;DR: The data indicate that cooperative interaction among the three TonE-like sequences in the human AR may be necessary for their enhancer function, suggesting that the mechanism of osmotic regulation of gene expression in these animals is similar.
Journal ArticleDOI

SIRT2 overexpression in hepatocellular carcinoma mediates epithelial to mesenchymal transition by protein kinase B/glycogen synthase kinase‐3β/β‐catenin signaling

Juan Chen, +13 more
- 01 Jun 2013 - 
TL;DR: The findings have uncovered a novel role for SIRT2 in H CC metastasis, and provide a rationale to explore the use of sirtuin inhibitors in HCC therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sirtuin 1 Is Upregulated in a Subset of Hepatocellular Carcinomas where It Is Essential for Telomere Maintenance and Tumor Cell Growth

Juan Chen, +15 more
- 15 Jun 2011 - 
TL;DR: A novel function for SIRT1 in telomere maintenance of HCC is revealed, and the clinical exploration of Sirt1 inhibitors for HCC therapy is rationalized.
