The Hedgehog signalling pathway regulates autophagy
13 Nov 2012
Abstract excerpt
Autophagy is a highly conserved degradative process that removes damaged or unnecessary proteins and organelles, and recycles cytoplasmic contents during starvation. Autophagy is essential in physiological processes such as embryonic development but how autophagy is regulated by canonical developmental pathways is unclear. Here we show that the Hedgehog signalling pathway inhibits autophagosome synthesis, both in...
