Autophagy – Part A, Volume 403 explores the fundamental biological process of autophagy. Beginning with the historical discovery and molecular mechanisms of autophagy, the book delves into its regulation, physiological roles, and significance in maintaining cellular homeostasis. Chapters in this new release include Ciliophagy: Maintaining Primary Cilium Homeostasis to Prevent Cilium-Related Diseases, Unraveling the interplay of glycolysis, lactylation, and autophagy, Autophagy and Type 2 Diabetes: Bridging the Gap in Metabolic Health, Autophagy in Cancer Cachexia: From Mechanisms to Therapeutic Opportunities, Glycophagy: A Selective Autophagy Pathway for Glycogen Degradation, Role of Autophagy in Adipose Tissue: Implications for Metabolic Health, and more.
- Explores the fundamental mechanisms, regulation, and biological roles of autophagy in cellular health and disease
- Highlights the latest research findings and technological advances in autophagy studies
- Examines the role of autophagy in various diseases, including cancer, neurodegenerative disorders, infections, and metabolic conditions

Jose Manuel Bravo-San Pedro
Jose Manuel Bravo-San Pedro is currently a researcher at the Department of Physiology of the Complutense University of Madrid thanks to a Ramon y Cajal contract grant. He got his Ph.D. in biochemistry, cellular biology and genetics from the University of Extremadura (Caceres, Spain) in 2011, and he did a post-doctoral stage in the laboratory of Prof. Guido Kroemer. His main research interests have always been linked to autophagy, addressing this cellular process associated with neurodegenerative diseases or cancer and recently obesity and specifically related to problems in the correct functioning of the cilium. He is co-inventor of two patents and co-author of 110 publications indexed in PubMed in prestigious international journals, with h-index 45 and 23768 cites (Dec 2022).
