Cover Story: A key feature of cigarette smoke (CS)-induced lung disease is dysfunction of the vascular endothelium; however, the underlying mechanisms remain poorly described. Lung vascular endothelial cell (EC) responses to injurious stimuli such as CS or e-cigarettes are mediated by cytoskeleton changes. We have identified cortactin (CTTN), a central regulator of the actin cytoskeleton, as an important modulator of lung EC function. This study demonstrates that CS exposure induces lung EC injury by causing a series of events that include rapid phosphorylation of CTTN within minutes, subsequent cytoskeletal rearrangement, and associated ROS production, and then finally induction of apoptosis as a downstream functional effect. These results provide novel insights into CTTN function in lung EC and CS-induced lung injury. View this paper

For many years, it was thought that ATG5 and ATG7 played a pivotal role in autophagy, and that the knockdown of one of these genes would result in its inhibition. However, cells with ATG5 or ATG7 depletion still generate autophagic vacuoles with main...
