自噬是由自噬体包裹胞质组分并运送到溶酶体降解的过程,对维持细胞正常功能至关重要。自噬异常与多种人类疾病密切相关,如神经退行性疾病等。以往人们对自噬分子机制的理解主要源于对酵母中鉴定的自噬基因的研究。多细胞生物自噬远比酵母自噬复杂,包含多个特有的自噬步骤。我课题组创立了线虫为研究多细胞生物自噬的遗传模型;鉴定了一系列多细胞生物特有的新自噬基因,并揭示了它们在多细胞生物自噬体形成和成熟过程的特有步骤中的作用机制。我课题组最新的研究发现内质网表面钙瞬变是决定自噬起始的关键信号,该发现解决了自噬领域一个长期悬而未决的难题。我们还揭示了液-液相分离在选择性自噬清除蛋白质聚集体中的作用。另外我课题组建立了研究多细胞生物自噬体成熟过程的遗传模型,并阐明了多个调控自噬活性的机理。这些研究极大地丰富了人们对多细胞自噬分子机制和调控机理的认识,并对阐明自噬异常与相关疾病的发病机理及开发新的治疗策略有重要意义。今后实验室将探究自噬起始的调控机制,重点关注内质网表面钙瞬变如何调控自噬体起始位点的组装,并将探讨神经退行性疾病相关基因突变引起的钙动力学异常导致自噬缺陷的机制。
