Autophagy in disease management: Exploring the potential of natural products as targeted therapies
Autophagy is a vital cellular process that degrades and recycles intracellular components via lysosomes, playing a key role in maintaining cellular homeostasis. Alteration of this mechanism has been implicated in the occurrence and progression of numerous diseases, including cancer, neurodegenerative disorders, cardiovascular conditions, and microbial and viral infections. Recent studies have identified several mutations affecting autophagy-related genes and elucidated how defective degradation of specific substrates contributes to disease mechanisms. Natural products are gaining attention for their ability to modulate autophagy through several molecular targets. Herin, we highlight the complicated role of autophagy in disease pathogenesis. We also illustrate how natural products may offer therapeutic value by targeting autophagy in different pathological contexts.
期刊介绍:
Pathology, Research and Practice provides accessible coverage of the most recent developments across the entire field of pathology: Reviews focus on recent progress in pathology, while Comments look at interesting current problems and at hypotheses for future developments in pathology. Original Papers present novel findings on all aspects of general, anatomic and molecular pathology. Rapid Communications inform readers on preliminary findings that may be relevant for further studies and need to be communicated quickly. Teaching Cases look at new aspects or special diagnostic problems of diseases and at case reports relevant for the pathologist''s practice.
