α‐Synuclein Promotes Atherosclerosis by Impairing Macrophage Autophagic Flux
Extracellular α‐synuclein activates the FLOT1‐PI3K‐mTOR axis to block autophagosome‐lysosomal fusion and lipophagy, thereby promoting macrophage foaming and atherosclerosis. Knockdown of FLOT1 or inhibition of PI3K‐mTOR rescues these effects. The graphical abstract image was created with Figdraw.
