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

Treatment of autosomal dominant hearing loss by in vivo delivery of genome editing agents

Xue Gao, +29 more
- 11 Jan 2018 - 
TL;DR: It is shown that cationic lipid-mediated in vivo delivery of Cas9–guide RNA–lipid complexes can ameliorate hearing loss in a mouse model of human genetic deafness, suggesting that protein–RNA complex delivery of target gene-disrupting agents in vivo is a potential strategy for the treatment of some types of autosomal-dominant hearing loss.
Journal ArticleDOI

Autophagy protects auditory hair cells against neomycin-induced damage.

Zuhong He, +16 more
- 02 Oct 2017 - 
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that moderate ROS levels can promote autophagy to recycle damaged cellular constituents and maintain cellular homeostasis, while the induction of Autophagy can inhibit apoptosis and protect the HCs by suppressing ROS accumulation after aminoglycoside injury.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prevalence of self-reported allergic rhinitis in eleven major cities in china.

Luo Zhang, +7 more
- 01 Jan 2009 - 
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the self-reported prevalence of AR in 11 cities across Mainland China has wide variations, ranging from <10% to >20%; 26% of theSelf-reported AR subjects were classified as suffering from persistent AR.
Journal ArticleDOI

The nuclear transcription factor FoxG1 affects the sensitivity of mimetic aging hair cells to inflammation by regulating autophagy pathways.

Zuhong He, +13 more
- 01 Jan 2020 - 
TL;DR: FoxG1 affects the sensitivity of mimetic aging hair cells to inflammation by regulating autophagy pathways, and this study finds that cell death and apoptosis were significantly increased after LPS injury.
