Autophagy is a conserved method of quality control in which cytoplasmic contents are
degraded via lysosomes. Lipophagy, a form of selective autophagy and a novel type of lipid …

Lipids are essential building blocks synthesized by complex molecular pathways and
deposited as lipid droplets (LDs) in cells. LDs are evolutionary conserved organelles found …

In 2008, we published the first set of guidelines for standardizing research in autophagy.
Since then, this topic has received increasing attention, and many scientists have entered …

The tumor microenvironment can be hypoxic, acidic, and deficient in nutrients, thus causing
the metabolism of tumor cells as well as the neighboring stromal cells to be remodelled to …

Autophagy is a catabolic process with an essential function in the maintenance of cellular
and tissue homeostasis. It is primarily recognised for its role in the degradation of …

Cytosolic lipid droplets (LDs) are ubiquitous organelles in prokaryotes and eukaryotes that
play a key role in cellular and organismal lipid homeostasis. Triacylglycerols (TAGs) and …

Autophagy is a conserved quality-control pathway that degrades cytoplasmic contents in
lysosomes. Autophagy degrades lipid droplets through a process termed lipophagy …

The ascomycete fungal pathogen Fusarium graminearum (sexual stage: Gibberella zeae)
causes the devastating head blight or scab disease on wheat and barley, and cob or ear rot …

Lipids are essential components for life. Their various structural and physical properties
influence diverse cellular processes and, thereby, human health. Lipids are not genetically …

The selective breakdown by autophagy of lipid droplet (LD)-stored lipids, termed lipophagy,
is a lysosomal lipolytic pathway that complements the actions of cytosolic neutral lipases …
