Autophagy is a highly regulated process of degrading and recycling damaged proteins and organelles in response to cellular stress.1, 2 It is mediated by a unique vesicle called the autophagosome, which is assembled by the formation of a double membrane around the cellular component marked for destruction.1 The autophagosome vesicle then fuses with the lysosome to deliver its contents for degradation by lysosomal hydrolases.
