  • Khawaja et al. show sex-specific differences in neuronal-activity regulation by chaperone-mediated autophagy and that loss of chaperone-mediated autophagy leads to defective neuronal physiology and increased seizure susceptibility, linking chaperone-mediated autophagy to neuronal excitability.

  • This study shows that Parkinson's disease–associated mutant forms of leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) impair chaperone-mediated autophagy in neurons, thereby reducing degradation of α-synuclein by this pathway and contributing to the accumulation of this protein observed in brain tissue from patients with Parkinson's disease.

  • Nutrient status in the cell regulates autophagy via mTORC1 activity. Here, the authors show that the ubiquitous G protein subunit Gαq contributes to nutrient sensing by promoting formation of an mTOR-p62-Raptor complex in replete conditions, modulating autophagy.

  • Using single-cell imaging of a fluorescent chaperone-mediated autophagy (CMA) reporter and RNA sequencing data, the authors present a resource on basal CMA activity across organs, cell types and sexes in young and old mice, offering a comprehensive overview of changes in this proteostatic mechanism in the context of aging.
