چکیده

While autophagy has been shown to act as an anti-viral defense, the Picornaviridae avoid and, in many cases, subvert this pathway to promote their own replication. Evidence indicates that some picornaviruses hijack autophagy in order to induce autophagosome-like membrane structures for genomic RNA replication. Expression of picornavirus proteins can specifically induce the machinery of autophagy, although the mechanisms by which the viruses employ autophagy appear to differ. Many picornaviruses up-regulate autophagy in order to promote viral replication while some members of the family also inhibit degradation by autolysosomes. Here we explore the unusual relationship of this medically important family of viruses with a degradative mechanism of innate immunity.

Role of autophagy associated with Helicobacter pylori CagA and VacA toxins in gastric cancer

Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is a gram-negative microaerophilic bacterium that has been introduced as a cause of mucosal inflammation and gastric cancer. The most important pathogenic factors are VacA and CagA, which are associated with increased disease severity in clinical strains. Autophagy is a protected lysosomal degradation pathway degrading cytoplasmic content and is important in host...

Subversion of the cellular autophagy pathway by viruses.

Autophagy is a cellular process that creates double-membraned vesicles, engulfs and degrades cytoplasmic material, and generates and recycles nutrients. A recognized participant in the innate immune response to microbial infection, a functional autophagic response can help to control the replication of many viruses. However, for several viruses, there is functional and mechanistic evidence that...
