The Role of Autophagy in the Female Reproduction System: For Beginners to Experts in This Field
Autophagy is a fundamental process involved in regulating cellular homeostasis. Autophagy has been classically discovered as a cellular process that degrades cytoplasmic components non-selectively to produce energy.

Autophagy, once viewed exclusively as a cytoplasmic auto-digestive process, has its less intuitive but biologically distinct non-degradative roles. One manifestation of these functions of the autophagic machinery is the process termed secretory autophagy. Secretory autophagy facilitates unconventional secretion of the cytosolic cargo such as leaderless

Autophagy Flux Correlates with Upregulation of AKT-1 in RAS Mutated Colon Cancer Cells [PDF]
Background: The AKT/PKB (protein kinase B) kinase is the main regulator of autophagy in mammalian cells, which consists of three isoforms, including AKT-1, AKT-2, and AKT-3.

The selectivity and specificity of autophagy in drosophila [PDF]
Autophagy is a process of cellular self-degradation and is a major pathway for elimination of cytoplasmic material by the lysosomes. Autophagy is responsible for the degradation of damaged organelles and protein aggregates and therefore plays a ...

Autophagy and Autophagy-Related Diseases: A Review [PDF]
Autophagy refers to the process involving the decomposition of intracellular components via lysosomes. Autophagy plays an important role in maintaining and regulating cell homeostasis by degrading intracellular components and providing degradation products to cells.

Autophagy and autophagy signaling in Epilepsy: possible role of autophagy activator
AbstractAutophagy is an explicit cellular process to deliver dissimilar cytoplasmic misfolded proteins, lipids and damaged organelles to the lysosomes for degradation and elimination. The mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) is the main negative regulator of autophagy.
