Xenophagy-Evasion Mechanisms by Intracellular Pathogens in Bacteria, Viruses, and Parasites

open access: yesJournal of Inflammatory and Infectious Medicine
Autophagy is an essential process for maintaining cellular homeostasis. Xenophagy, a key defense mechanism, selectively degrades and eliminates pathogens such as bacteria, viruses, and parasites that have invaded the host. Host cells mark pathogens through ubiquitination. These marked pathogens are then recognized by autophagy receptors and sequestered

Selective autophagy gets more selective: Uncoupling of autophagy flux and xenophagy flux inMycobacterium tuberculosis-infected macrophages

open access: yes, 2016
Induction of autophagy has been reported as a potential means to eliminate intracellular pathogens. Corroborating that, many studies report inhibition of autophagy as a survival strategy of bacterial pathogens.
