1. Atg7(f/f) Tyr-Cre mice, in which autophagy-related 7 (Atg7) is conditionally deleted under the control of the tyrosinase promoter, are a model for accumulations of the autophagy adapter and substrate sequestosome-1/p62 in both neuronal and neuroepithelial cells. PMID: 29550918

12. Atg7 is critical for the survival of midbrain dopaminergic (mDA) neurons in physiological condition. Atg7 is up-regulated when exposed to MPTP, but unlike in the control mice, chronic MPTP treatment did not lead to loss of mDA neurons in Atg7 conditional knockout mice. These results suggest that excessive Atg7-involved autophagy in the pathological condition has deleterious effects on the survival of mDA neurons. PMID: 27693472

ATG5/7 knockdown also increased glucose- and non-fuel-stimulated insulin secretion. PMID: 26831301
16. The U2AF35(S34F) mutation alters interaction with CFIm59, leading to increased use of a distal cleavage and polyadenylation site in the ATG7 pre-mRNA, decreasing levels of ATG7 protein and defective autophagy, ultimately leading to transformation. PMID: 27184077

25. Treg cell-specific deletion of Atg7 leads to loss of Treg cells, greater tumor resistance and development of inflammatory disorders. Atg7-deficient Treg cells show increased apoptosis and readily lose expression of the transcription factor Foxp3. PMID: 26808230
