In search of an “autophagomometer”

Abstract

Recent years have seen the realization that macroautophagy (which we will call autophagy) is not only important in yeast but is necessary for diverse functions in plants and animals. Importantly, autophagy can have an impact on human pathologies including infectious diseases, cancers, and neurodegenerative conditions. Thus, we need to be able to measure autophagy accurately in order to understand how it can be regulated physiologically and with exogenous agents.

Claims the paper makes

This paper’s full text isn’t openly available, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • The LAMP2 knockdown approach to block autophagosome-lysosome fusion is only valid when the knockdown is directed against the mRNA region specific for the LAMP2B spliced variant, as targeting the region common to the three variants would also inhibit chaperone-mediated autophagy, which may result in compensatory upregulation of autophagy.

    “This approach, however, is only valid when the knockdown of LAMP2 is directed against the mRNA region specific for the LAMP2B spliced variant, as targeting the region common to the three variants would also inhibit chaperone-mediated autophagy (CMA), which may result in the compensatory upregulation of autophagy [135,309,310].”
  • Interference with the CMA pathway activates a compensatory form of autophagy that increases the overall degradation of long-lived proteins.

    “Conversely, interference with the CMA pathway does seem to activate a compensatory form of autophagy that increases the overall degradation of long-lived proteins [135,309].”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
