Autophagy, the process by which cells recycle damaged components, has long been associated with neuroprotection. However, the ...

Macronucleophagy helps control micronucleophagy to protect yeast cells during stress. Through extensive experiments with ...

In 2000, it was suggested to me that “Autophagy will be the wave of the future; it will become the new apoptosis.” Few people would have agreed at the time, but this statement turned out to be ...

Aging involves gradual functional decline across various biological systems, including impaired cellular mechanisms such as ...

Autophagy, derived from a Greek word, the "self-eating" nature refers to an interesting cellular process as part of the body's own recycling mechanism for cellular damage or components that have no ...

Autophagy is a natural regeneration process that occurs at a cellular level in the body, reducing the likelihood of contracting some diseases as well as prolonging lifespan. In 2016, Japanese ...

Cells degrade components that are no longer needed through autophagy. New results show that a weak molecular interaction is essential for this process. By modifying this interaction, it is possible to ...

Daniela Hernandez extends her health and science reporting to cover a variety of relevant subjects from Covid-19 to climate change.

When STING is triggered, TANK-binding kinase (TBK1) activates and leads to interferon production. However, Tan and his team ...

Autophagy, the cell's essential housekeeping process, involves degrading and recycling damaged organelles, proteins, and other components to prevent clutter. This vital mechanism, found in all ...
