"Moreover, it was demonstrated in vivo that MnS x , on the one hand, mediated the activation of tumor autophagy by USP8 via intracellular H 2 S, while Mn 2+ promoted the maturation of dendritic cells, activated cytotoxic T lymphocytes and contributed to tumor eradication."

"Thus, important prerequisites for compound optimization and drug development exist for USP8 and can be readily exploited in aged-associated neurodegenerative disease models.In summary, in this work we show that we can enhance autophagy and mitophagy by down-regulating USP8, a DUB that is upregulated in age-related neurodegenerative conditions [19,42]."

reach
"For example, the ubiquitin-specific peptidase 8 (USP8) inhibitor DUB-IN-1 can inhibit ESCC cell growth by stimulating autophagy through p53-dependent adenosine 5’-monophosphate (AMP)-activated protein kinase (AMPK) [55]."

"Lastly, we have shown that shRNA mediated inactivation of UBPY in HeLa cells also affects autophagy which appears to be deregulated with an increased number of autophagosomes and increased autophagy flux."

"Inactivation of human UBPY in HeLa cells activates autophagy."

"These data indicate that USP8 guards autophagic flux in ESCs.EPG5 mediates autophagy by direct binding to LC3 using its LIR motif , which is conserved in eukaryotes (Fig. 6e)."

"We show here that UBPY silencing also activates autophagy in absence of CCCP treatment, which strongly suggests that UBPY is not connected exclusively to mitophagy."

reach
"In summary, USP8 inhibition has been shown to reduce the autophagy protein p62 during infection with Salmonella, which is correlated with increased autophagy flux.3 Discussion."

reach
"Interestingly, USP8 also enhances the interaction between EPG5 and LC3 in embryonic stem cells (EPCs), where EPG5 is a novel candidate for regulating autophagy in these cells (Gu et al., 2019); the knockdown of USP8 decreased the autophagy flux, while USP8 overexpression caused an increase in autophagy under normal and starvation conditions (Gu et al., 2019)."

reach
"We found that USP8 down-regulation enhances autophagy and mitophagy in flies and in neurons of human origin, providing a mechanistic explanation for the protective effect of USP8 reduction observed in several models of neurodegeneration."
