It’s Nobel Prize week 2016, which means it’s basically science Christmas!

Biomedical lesson on AKT (Protein Kinase B) signaling, regulation and downstream effects. The AKT signalling pathway is a highly conserved pathway that induces several important functions including glucose uptake and utilization,...

Parkinson's disease is a neurodegenerative prion disease in which affected individuals (e.g., Michael J Fox [comedian]; Muhammad Ali [Heavyweight champ]) suffer cell death in the substantia nigra and tremors. In this video, I will...

A study conducted on mice by a team of scientists at John Hopkins University found that high doses of cocaine can cause out-of-control autophagy, a physiological process that causes the destruction of cells and the formation of new ones....

Green Tea: Health Benefits and Risks<b<br/>r/>

In this lesson, we discuss in-vitro and animal model findings concerning health benefits (Anti-bacterial, anti-viral etc.) and health risks of consuming green tea.

Introductory lesson on the transcriptional regulation of macroautophagy with emphasis on transcriptional activators. Macroautophagy is regulated transcriptionally during feeding, fasting, starvation, hypoxia and DNA damage. In this...

mTOR Signalling and Regulation by the Lysosome 



In this video, mTOR signaling is explained in a step-by-step powerpoint lesson. Regulation of mTOR signaling by the lysosome is also

explained.

Hey guys! In this...

Lesson on chaperone-mediated autophagy (CMA). CMA is a selective degradation process involving the use of protein chaperones, which target and deliver KFERQ-containing protein cargo to the lysosome for degradation. The chaperone...

Lesson on macroautophagy and regulation by fasting and starvation, with an additional detailed overview of how macroautophagy is inhibited during feeding and the fed state. Macroautophagy is a nutrient responsive process and is inhibited...

Macroautophagy: Steps, Regulation, and Importance in Health Hey guys! In this lesson, you will learn about the macroautophagy pathway, how the pathway is initiated, how the pathway operates, what regulates the pathway and why the pathway...

Lesson on the transcriptional regulation of macroautophagy with emphasis on transcriptional repressors of the macroautophagy pathway. Macroautophagy is regulated transcriptionally during feeding, fasting, starvation, hypoxia and DNA...
