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

Increased ER-mitochondrial coupling promotes mitochondrial respiration and bioenergetics during early phases of ER stress

Roberto Bravo, +20 more
- 01 Jul 2011 - 
TL;DR: It is shown that, during the onset of ER stress, the reticular and mitochondrial networks are redistributed towards the perinuclear area and their points of connection are increased in a microtubule-dependent fashion, which establishes the metabolic basis for the adaptation to this response.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cardiomyocyte death: mechanisms and translational implications.

Mario Chiong, +11 more
- 22 Dec 2011 - 
TL;DR: Recent progress in the fields of autophagy, apoptosis, and necrosis is reviewed and the involvement of these mechanisms in cardiac pathology is highlighted and potential translational implications are highlighted.
Journal ArticleDOI

New insights into IGF-1 signaling in the heart

Rodrigo Troncoso, +5 more
- 01 Mar 2014 - 
TL;DR: A fresh and updated view of the complex IGF-1 scenario in the heart is provided, including a critical focus on therapeutic strategies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Insulin stimulates mitochondrial fusion and function in cardiomyocytes via the Akt-mTOR-NFκB-Opa-1 signaling pathway

Valentina Parra, +23 more
- 01 Jan 2014 - 
TL;DR: It is demonstrated for the first time in knowledge that insulin acutely regulates mitochondrial metabolism in cardiomyocytes through a mechanism that depends on increased mitochondrial fusion, Opa-1, and the Akt-mTOR-NFκB pathway.
