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

Sympathetic innervation controls homeostasis of neuromuscular junctions in health and disease

Muzamil Majid Khan, +28 more
- 19 Jan 2016 - 
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that sympathetic neurons make close contact with neuromuscular junctions and form a network in skeletal muscle that may functionally couple different targets including blood vessels, motor neurons, and muscle fibers.
Journal ArticleDOI

Role of adrenoceptors and cAMP on the catecholamine-induced inhibition of proteolysis in rat skeletal muscle

Luiz Carlos Carvalho Navegantes, +3 more
- 01 Sep 2000 - 
TL;DR: The data suggest that catecholamines exert an inhibitory control of skeletal muscle proteolysis, probably mediated by beta(2)-adrenoceptors, with the participation of a cAMP-dependent pathway.
Journal ArticleDOI

Catecholamines inhibit Ca2+-dependent proteolysis in rat skeletal muscle through β2-adrenoceptors and cAMP

Luiz Carlos Carvalho Navegantes, +3 more
- 01 Sep 2001 - 
TL;DR: The data suggest that catecholamines secreted by the adrenal medulla exert an inhibitory control of Ca(2+)-dependent proteolysis in rat skeletal muscle, mediated by beta(2)-adrenoceptors, with the participation of a cAMP-dependent pathway.
Journal ArticleDOI

Adrenergic control of protein metabolism in skeletal muscle.

Luiz Carlos Carvalho Navegantes, +2 more
- 01 May 2002 - 
TL;DR: Evidence indicates that the sympathetic nervous system, through hormonal and neurotransmitter actions, produces anabolic, protein-sparing effects on skeletal muscle protein metabolism, and that these effects seem to be mediated by β2-adrenoceptors and cyclic adenosine monophosphate-dependent pathways.
