Family ATG5 family
Function
Involved in autophagic vesicle formation. Conjugation with ATG12, through a ubiquitin-like conjugating system involving ATG7 as an E1-like activating enzyme and ATG10 as an E2-like conjugating enzyme, is essential for its function. The ATG12-ATG5 conjugate acts as an E3- like enzyme which is required for lipidation of ATG8 family proteins and their association to the vesicle membranes. Involved in mitochondrial quality control after oxidative damage, and in subsequent cellular longevity. Plays a critical role in multiple aspects of lymphocyte development and is essential for both B and T lymphocyte survival and proliferation. Required for optimal processing and presentation of antigens for MHC II. Involved in the maintenance of axon morphology and membrane structures, as well as in normal adipocyte differentiation. Promotes primary ciliogenesis through removal of OFD1 from centriolar satellites and degradation of IFT20 via the autophagic pathway.

1 x 107 U251 cells were subcutaneously injected into the right back of the four-week-old BALB/c nude mice. After the tumor grown to 100 mm3, mice were randomly divided into 3 groups: mice in control group receivedintraperitoneal injectionof saline, while mice in AF treatment group received intraperitoneal injection at dosages of 40 mg/kg/day or 80 mg/kg/day, respectively.

Response regulation Amentoflavone (AF) triggered ferroptosis in autophagy-dependent manner. Furthermore, the expression of LC3B, Beclin1, ATG5, ATG7 were increased, and the expression of FTH were decreased by AF in a dose-dependent manner in vivo. AF has the potential to be considered as a novel treatment agent in glioma.

In Vivo Model
All mice were housed in a specific pathogen-free environment under a standard 12 h light-dark cycle at 25 and had ad libitum access to food and water. Approximately 4 x 106 KYSE510 cells in 100 uL of normal saline were subcutaneously injected into the right flank of mice (n = 20 in total). All mice were allocated to a control or 10 mg/kg allicin group (n = 10 per group), as previously described (Suddek 2014). The mice were orally administered allicin or normal saline once daily for 28 days.

Response regulation In summary, allicin may induce cell death in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) cells by activating AMPK/mTOR-mediated autophagy and ferroptosis. Furthermore, ATG5 and ATG7 expression increased in tumors after allicin treatment. In contrast, NCOA4 expression increased, but the protein level of FTH1 and TfR1 decreased in tumors after allicin treatment.

Response regulation Autophagy contributes to ferroptosis by degradation of ferritin in fibroblasts and pancreatic cancer cells. Knockout or knockdown of Atg5 (autophagy-related 5) and Atg7 limited erastin-induced ferroptosis with decreased intracellular ferrous iron levels, and lipid peroxidation. Remarkably, NCOA4 was a selective cargo receptor for the selective autophagic turnover of ferritin (namely ferritinophagy) in ferroptosis.
