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

Relationship of adiponectin to body fat distribution, insulin sensitivity and plasma lipoproteins: evidence for independent roles of age and sex.

Miriam Cnop, +9 more
- 10 Apr 2003 - 
TL;DR: It is suggested that adiponectin concentrations are determined by intra-abdominal fat mass, with additional independent effects of age and sex, and could link intra- abdominalFat with insulin resistance and an atherogenic lipoprotein profile.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mechanisms of pancreatic beta-cell death in type 1 and type 2 diabetes: many differences, few similarities.

Miriam Cnop, +5 more
- 01 Dec 2005 - 
TL;DR: Cytokines and nutrients trigger beta-cell death by fundamentally different mechanisms, namely an NF-kappaB-dependent mechanism that culminates in caspase-3 activation for cytokines and anNF-kappB-independent mechanism for nutrients.
Journal ArticleDOI

The role for endoplasmic reticulum stress in diabetes mellitus.

Decio L. Eizirik, +3 more
- 15 Jan 2008 - 
TL;DR: This review addresses the transition from physiology to pathology, namely how and why the physiological UPR evolves to a proapoptotic ER stress response and which defenses are triggered by beta-cells against these challenges.
Journal ArticleDOI

Endoplasmic reticulum stress, obesity and diabetes

Miriam Cnop, +3 more
- 01 Jan 2012 - 
TL;DR: Ways in which ER stress operates as a common molecular pathway in the pathogenesis of obesity and diabetes are discussed.
