MicroRNA regulation of autophagy

Abstract excerpt

Macroautophagy (hereafter referred to as autophagy) is a tightly regulated intracellular catabolic pathway involving the lysosomal degradation of cytoplasmic organelles and proteins. Central to this process is the formation of the autophagosome, a double membrane-bound vesicle, which is responsible for the delivery of cytoplasmic cargo to the lysosomes. Autophagy levels are constantly changing, allowing...
