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

A Fatty Acid Oxidation-Dependent Metabolic Shift Regulates Adult Neural Stem Cell Activity

TL;DR: It is shown that the rate of fatty acid oxidation (FAO) regulates the activity of NSPCs, and an instructive role for fatty acid metabolism in regulating NSPC activity is suggested.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hypoxia signaling pathways: modulators of oxygen-related organelles

TL;DR: Current knowledge of how HIF-α signaling regulates the abundance and function of major O2-consuming organelles is critically explored and potential mechanisms by which Hif-2α might trigger pexophagy are discussed and a mechanism by which cells attune peroxisomal function with O2 availability is suggested.
