متن کاملEnhanced autophagy ameliorates cardiac proteinopathy.
Basal autophagy is a crucial mechanism in cellular homeostasis, underlying both normal cellular recycling and the clearance of damaged or misfolded proteins, organelles and aggregates. We showed here that enhanced levels of autophagy induced by either autophagic gene overexpression or voluntary exercise ameliorated desmin-related cardiomyopathy (DRC). To increase levels of basal autophagy, we g...
متن کاملNutritional Status and Cardiac Autophagy
Autophagy is necessary for the degradation of long-lasting proteins and nonfunctional organelles, and is activated to promote cellular survival. However, overactivation of autophagy may deplete essential molecules and organelles responsible for cellular survival. Lifelong calorie restriction by 40% has been shown to increase the cardiac expression of autophagic markers, which suggests that it m...
متن کاملFunctions of Autophagy in Pathological Cardiac Hypertrophy
Pathological cardiac hypertrophy is the response of heart to various biomechanical and physiopathological stimuli, such as aging, myocardial ischemia and hypertension. However, a long-term exposure to the stress makes heart progress to heart failure. Autophagy is a dynamic self-degradative process necessary for the maintenance of cellular homeostasis. Accumulating evidence has revealed a tight ...
متن کاملAutophagy in myocardial differentiation and cardiac development.
Autophagy represents an important biological process that contributes to cellular homeostasis. It is induced when the cell experiences stress, including nutrient and energy deprivation. For instance, the absence of nutrients and growth factors induces autophagy within minutes.1 Autophagy functions to protect cells against potential damage in association with exposure to stress, and thereby help...
