説明

<p>Autophagy is a major intracellular degradation system and plays important roles in various physiological processes such as metabolic adaptation and intracellular homeostasis. It degrades intracellular components both randomly and selectively. Autophagic activity is tightly regulated primarily by nutrient availability, but also by other extracellular and intracellular signals. Growing evidence suggests that there are multiple links between autophagy and the primary cilium. The primary cilium is an organelle present on the cell surface and is important for keeping cellular integrity by transducing extracellular stimuli inside the cell. Recent studies have revealed that autophagy selectively degrades the ciliogenesis inhibitory proteins OFD1 and MYH9, promoting ciliogenesis. Conversely, autophagy also inhibits ciliogenesis under growth conditions. The primary cilium can also regulate autophagic activity. These findings suggest that the relationship between autophagy and the primary cilia is bidirectional, and that both are important for maintaining the normal function of various organs.</p>
