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

BRAFE600-associated senescence-like cell cycle arrest of human naevi

TL;DR: It is shown that sustained BRAFV600E expression in human melanocytes induces cell cycle arrest, which is accompanied by the induction of both p16INK4a and senescence-associated acidic β-galactosidase (SA-β-Gal) activity, a commonly usedsenescence marker.
Journal ArticleDOI

Inactivation of the apoptosis effector Apaf-1 in malignant melanoma.

TL;DR: It is concluded that Apaf-1 is inactivated in metastatic melanomas, which leads to defects in the execution of apoptotic cell death, which may contribute to the low frequency of p53 mutations observed in this highly chemoresistant tumour type.
