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.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cyclin D1 Expression Is Regulated Positively by the p42/p44MAPK and Negatively by the p38/HOGMAPK Pathway

TL;DR: The notion that MAPK cascades drive specific cell cycle responses to extracellular stimuli, at least in part, through the modulation of cyclin D1 expression and associated cdk activities is supported.
Journal ArticleDOI

Regulation of actin filament dynamics by p38 map kinase-mediated phosphorylation of heat shock protein 27

TL;DR: The results provide strong support to the idea that activation of p38 during adverse environmental conditions serves a homeostatic function aimed at regulating actin dynamics that would otherwise be destabilized during stress.
Journal ArticleDOI

Regulated Targeting of BAX to Mitochondria

TL;DR: The results suggest that regulated targeting of BAX to mitochondria in response to a death signal is mediated by discrete domains within the BAX polypeptide.
Journal ArticleDOI

Modulation of cellular thermoresistance and actin filament stability accompanies phosphorylation-induced changes in the oligomeric structure of heat shock protein 27.

TL;DR: It is proposed that early during stress, phosphorylation-induced conformational changes in the HSP27 oligomers regulate the activity of the protein at the level of microfilament dynamics, resulting in both enhanced stability and accelerated recovery of the filaments.
