The Inflammatory Bowel Disease Drug Azathioprine Induces Autophagy via mTORC1 and the Unfolded Protein Response Sensor PERK
- Abstract:
-
BACKGROUND:Genetic studies have strongly linked autophagy to Crohn's disease (CD), and stimulating autophagy in CD patients may be therapeutically beneficial. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of current inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) drugs on autophagy and investigate molecular mechanisms of action and functional outcomes in relation to this cellular process. METHODS:Autophagy marker LC3 was evaluated by confocal fluorescence microscopy and flow cytometry. Drug mechanism of ...
