Autophagy: Basic Principles and Relevance to Transplant Immunity

Abstract excerpt

Autophagy developed into a rapidly expanding field detailing its molecular mechanism and relevance in health and disease. Autophagy is an evolutionarily conserved process that summarizes a pathway in which intracellular material is degraded within the lysosome and where the macromolecular constituents are recycled. This "self-eating" process was originally described in a cell under starvation but now numerous...
