Silencing of PARP2 Blocks Autophagic Degradation
Poly(ADP-Ribose) polymerases (PARPs) are enzymes that metabolize NAD+.PARP1 and PARP10 were previously implicated in the regulation of autophagy.Here we showed that cytosolic electron-dense particles appear in the cytoplasm of C2C12 myoblasts in which PARP2 is silenced by shRNA.The cytosolic electron-dense bodies resemble autophagic vesicles and, i
