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.
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

Malonyl-CoA, fuel sensing, and insulin resistance

TL;DR: The hypothesis is that by altering the cytosolic concentrations of LCFA-CoA and diacylglycerol, and secondarily the activity of one or more protein kinase C isoforms, changes in malonyl- coA provide a link between fuel metabolism and signal transduction in these cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Contraction-induced Changes in Acetyl-CoA Carboxylase and 5′-AMP-activated Kinase in Skeletal Muscle

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the activity and properties of ACC-β, the skeletal muscle isozyme that catalyzes malonyl-CoA formation, in rat gastrocnemius-soleus muscles at rest and during contractions induced by electrical stimulation of the sciatic nerve.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ras activation of the Raf kinase: tyrosine kinase recruitment of the MAP kinase cascade.

TL;DR: The way in which work from this and other laboratories on insulin signaling led to the discovery of the mammalian MAP kinase cascade and, in turn, to the identification of unique role of the Raf kinases in RTK activation of this protein (Ser/Thr) kinases cascade is summarized.
