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.

The Beclin 1 network regulates autophagy and apoptosis

Rui Kang, +3 more
- 11 Feb 2011 - 
TL;DR: New findings regarding the organization and function of the Beclin 1 network in cellular homeostasis are summarized, focusing on the cross-regulation between apoptosis and autophagy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ferroptosis: process and function.

Yangchun Xie, +8 more
- 01 Mar 2016 - 
TL;DR: Misregulated ferroptosis has been implicated in multiple physiological and pathological processes, including cancer cell death, neurotoxicity, neurodegenerative diseases, acute renal failure, drug-induced hepatotoxicity, hepatic and heart ischemia/reperfusion injury, and T-cell immunity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Autophagy promotes ferroptosis by degradation of ferritin

Wen Hou, +7 more
- 24 Jun 2016 - 
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that autophagy contributes to ferroptosis by degradation of ferritin in fibroblasts and cancer cells by knocking out or knockdown of Atg5 and Atg7, which provides novel insight into the interplay between Autophagy and regulated cell death.
