Autophagy
Autophagy is a lysosomal degradation pathway that is essential for survival, differentiation, development, and homeostasis. Autophagy refers to any cellular degradative pathway that involves the delivery of cytoplasmic cargo to the lysosome. At least three forms have been identified—chaperone-mediated autophagy, microautophagy, and macroautophagy—that differ with respect to their physiological functions and the mode of cargo delivery to the lysosome.Autophagy occurs at low basal levels in virtually all cells to perform homeostatic functions such as protein and organelle turnover. One of the key regulators of autophagy is the target of rapamycin, TOR kinase, which is the major inhibitory signal that shuts off autophagy in the presence of growth factors and abundant nutrients. The class I PI3K/Akt signaling molecules link receptor tyrosine kinases to TOR activation and thereby repress autophagy in response to insulin-like and other growth factor signals.Some of the other regulatory molecules that control autophagy include 5′-AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), which responds to low energy; the eukaryotic initiation factor 2α (eIF2α), which responds to nutrient starvation, double-stranded RNA, and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress; BH3-only proteins that contain a Bcl-2 homology-3 (BH3) domain inhibition of the Beclin 1/class III PI3K and disrupt Bcl-2/Bcl-XL complex; the tumor suppressor protein, p53; death-associated protein kinases (DAPk); the ER-membrane-associated protein, Ire-1; the stress-activated kinase, c-Jun-N-terminal kinase; the inositoltrisphosphate (IP3) receptor (IP3R); GTPases; Erk1/2; ceramide; and calcium.

MitoSOX Red
产品货号 : M36633
cas no: 1003197-00-9
MitoSOX Red 是特异靶向线粒体的活细胞荧光探针,具有细胞膜渗透性。MitoSOX Red 进入线粒体后会被超氧化物氧化,而不会被其他 ROS 或 RNS 生成系统氧化。被氧化的 MitoSOX Red 随后与线粒体/细胞核内的核酸结合,产生强红色荧光。MitoSOX Red 可以作为荧光指示剂,特异性检测超氧化物。另外,超氧化物歧化酶 (Superoxide dismutase,SOD) 能够预防 MitoSOX Red 氧化。激发/发射波长:510/580 nm。
