Autophagy is dispensable in germline stem cells but is required in the cap cells for their maintenance in the Drosophila ovarian niche

2024-10-22

Abstract excerpt

Autophagy is a cytoprotective mechanism responsible for the maintenance and long-term survival of various cell types, including stem cells. However, its role in the Germline stem cell (GSC)-niche, including its effects on GSCs and niche cells, remains unexplored. We demonstrate that autophagy flux in female Drosophila GSCs is low and dependent on the core autophagy gene, Atg5 . However, the maintenance of Atg5-/...
