Autophagy Flux Induction

Meaning

Autophagy Flux Induction is the clinical strategy of deliberately stimulating and completing the cellular self-cleaning process known as autophagy, a vital catabolic mechanism. This process involves sequestering and degrading damaged organelles, misfolded proteins, and aggregated cellular components to promote cellular renewal. Successfully inducing the flux ensures the entire process, from formation of the autophagosome to lysosomal degradation, is efficient and complete, which is essential for cellular health and longevity.
