Abstract:
Rheumatoid arthritis ( RA ) and systemic lupus erythematosus ( SLE ) are the most important and typical autoimmune diseases,however their exact mechanisms has not yet been clear. Autohpagy,a highly conserved process,depends on catabolism of lysosomal degradation of macromolecules or organelles within the cell itself. Autophagy exists widely in various tissues and is involved in maintaining survival and differentiation of cell or the stablility of internal environment. Recently,autophagy has gained wider attention and been one of the hot points of relative reserches. In this review we′ll sum up the development of autophagy in RA and SLE.
