Autophagy and Viral Infection

Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology
Yichuan Xiao, Wei Cai

Abstract

Autophagy plays an important role in the fight against viral infection, which can directly remove the virus, interact with the viral protein, and at the same time regulate the innate and adaptive immunity and promote virus clearance. The virus has also evolved autophagy, which evades, antagonizes and utilizes autophagy, and regulates autophagy pathways, affects autophagy maturation, changes autophagy small body environment or changes the body's immune response type to promote or inhibit autophagy. This chapter introduces the possible mechanisms of autophagy during pathogen infection such as human immunodeficiency virus and hepatitis virus, in order to provide new methods for the prevention and treatment of viral infection.
