Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study aimed to identify precursor structures of the autophagic isolation membrane. Because another group demonstrated the ones induced by amino acid starvation using similar approaches, we focused on investigating on mitophagy. As a results, we found that the extension of the isolation membrane on the mitochondrial surface is involved in the iron-deficiency induced mitophagy. Also, we were able to establish a method for observing the isolation membrane by scanning electron microscopy, which will promote future research project. Finally, we suggested the importance of autophagy-lysosomal system in fibroblasts during wound-healing process and in muscle fibers in cancer induced cachexia.
