abstract = {In 2008, we published the first set of guidelines for
standardizing research in autophagy. Since then, this topic
has received increasing attention, and many scientists have
entered the field. Our knowledge base and relevant new
technologies have also been expanding. Thus, it is important
to formulate on a regular basis updated guidelines for
monitoring autophagy in different organisms. Despite
numerous reviews, there continues to be confusion regarding
acceptable methods to evaluate autophagy, especially in
multicellular eukaryotes. Here, we present a set of
guidelines for investigators to select and interpret methods
to examine autophagy and related processes, and for
reviewers to provide realistic and reasonable critiques of
reports that are focused on these processes. These
guidelines are not meant to be a dogmatic set of rules,
because the appropriateness of any assay largely depends on
the question being asked and the system being used.
Moreover, no individual assay is perfect for every
situation, calling for the use of multiple techniques to
properly monitor autophagy in each experimental setting.
Finally, several core components of the autophagy machinery
have been implicated in distinct autophagic processes
(canonical and noncanonical autophagy), implying that
genetic approaches to block autophagy should rely on
targeting two or more autophagy-related genes that ideally
participate in distinct steps of the pathway. Along similar
lines, because multiple proteins involved in autophagy also
regulate other cellular pathways including apoptosis, not
all of them can be used as a specific marker for bona fide
autophagic responses. Here, we critically discuss current
methods of assessing autophagy and the information they can,
or cannot, provide. Our ultimate goal is to encourage
intellectual and technical innovation in the field.},
