Abstract

Autophagy is a dynamic process that degrades intracellular proteins and damaged organelles, and maintains environmental stability within the cell and provides good conditions for cell survival. Hyperoxic acute lung injury (HALI) is one of the serious complications of clinical oxygen therapy. The pathogenesis of HALI is still unclear. There are studies having shown that autophagy is involved in the pathogenesis of HALI. There are many pathway mechanisms that regulate autophagy, including phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase/Akt/mammalian target of rapamycin (PI3K/Akt/mTOR) signaling pathway, mitogen-activated protein kinase/extracellular signaling-regulated protein kinase (MAPK/ERK) signaling pathway, adenosine 5'-monophosphate-activated protein kinase/unc-51 like autophagy activating kinase 1 (AMPK/ULK1) signaling pathway, transforming growth factor β (TGF-β) and forkhead box O1 (FoxO1) and Ras guanosine triphosphatease superfamily member Rab11a, each of which is referred to as microRNA-21-5p (miR-21-5p) target gene having a role in regulating autophagy activity in many diseases. In this paper, the above-mentioned signaling pathways of miRNA-21-5p target genes regulating autophagy were reviewed in order to find clues about the mechani...Continue Reading

Autophagosome

An autophagosome is the formation of double-membrane vesicles that involve numerous proteins and cytoplasmic components. These double-membrane vesicles are then terminated at the lysosome where they are degraded. Discover the latest research on autophagosomes here.

AKT Pathway

This feed focuses on the AKT serine/threonine kinase, which is an important signaling pathway involved in processes such as glucose metabolism and cell survival.

Autophagy Networks

Autophagy is a lysosomal pathway that involves degradation of proteins and functions in normal growth and pathological conditions, through a series of complex networks. The catabolic process involves delivery of proteins and organelles to the lysosome. Here is the latest research on autophagy networks.
