Journal ArticleDOI

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

Artesunate Activates Mitochondrial Apoptosis in Breast Cancer Cells via Iron-catalyzed Lysosomal Reactive Oxygen Species Production

Anne Hamacher-Brady, +11 more
- 25 Feb 2011 - 
TL;DR: The data suggest that ART triggers PCD via engagement of distinct, interconnected PCD pathways, with hierarchical signaling from lysosomes to mitochondria, suggesting a potential clinical use of ART for targeting lysOSomes in cancer treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI

miRNA-130a Targets ATG2B and DICER1 to Inhibit Autophagy and Trigger Killing of Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia Cells

Valentina Kovaleva, +12 more
- 01 Apr 2012 - 
TL;DR: It is shown that miR-130a modulates cell survival programs by regulating autophagic flux, and roles for miR -130a and Dicer1 in a regulatory feedback loop that mediates CLL cell survival are defined.
Journal ArticleDOI

Through Its Nonstructural Protein NS1, Parvovirus H-1 Induces Apoptosis via Accumulation of Reactive Oxygen Species

Georgi Hristov, +8 more
- 15 Jun 2010 - 
TL;DR: It is shown thatNS1 expression is sufficient to induce the accumulation of cells in G2 phase, apoptosis via caspase 9 and 3 activation, and cell lysis, indicating that NS1-induced ROS are important mediators of H-1PV cytotoxicity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Microglia isolated from patients with glioma gain antitumor activities on poly (I:C) stimulation

Tim Kees, +10 more
- 01 Jan 2012 - 
TL;DR: Evidence is provided that human microglia isolated from brain tumors indeed support tumor cell growth, migration, and invasion, and that these functions are overridden by tumor-suppressing activities gained after poly (I:C) stimulation.
