Autophagy has been extensively studied and occurs in many biological settings.However,a question remains as to whether ischemia enhances Beclin-1/LC3-II-dependent macroautophagy in vascular endothelial cells,as has be...
Parkinson's disease(PD)is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by progressive motor disturbances and affects more than 1%of the worldwide population.Diagnosis of PD relies on clinical history and physical examin...
The function of lymphocytes is dependent on their plasticity,particularly their adaptation to energy availability and environmental stress,and their protein synthesis machinery.Lymphocytes are constantly under metabol...

Background:Progressive accumulation ofα-synuclein is a key step in the pathological development of Parkinson’s disease.Impaired protein degradation and increased levels ofα-synuclein may trigger a pathological aggr...
Background: Imbalance of interferon-gamma (IFN-γ), interleukin (IL)-4, and IL-17 producing by T cells is confirmed to contribute to the pathogenesis of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Autophagy is now emer...

Parkinson’s disease(PD)is the second most common neurodegenerative disease.Increasing evidence supports that dysregulation of autophagy and mitochondrial function are closely related with PD pathogenesis.In this revi...
Macroautophagy is a conserved degradative process mediated through formation of a unique double- membrane structure, the autophagosome. The discovery of autophagy-related (Atg) genes required for autophagosome forma...
Autophagy is a primarily degradative pathway that takes place in all eukaryotic cells. It is used for recycling cytoplasm to generate macromolecular building blocks and energy under stress conditions, to remove superf...
Macroautophagy is a multistep, vacuolar, degradation pathway terminating in the lysosomal compartment, and it is of fundamental importance in tissue homeostasis. In this review, we consider macroautophagy in the light...
