Coibamide A, an Cytotoxic Depsipeptide, Induces Autophagosome Accumulation

Autophagy is the key structure of macroautophagy. Macroautophagy is an intracellular degradation system of cytoplasmic contents. Meanwhile, autophagy is a new double-membrane vesicle formed during autophagy, which can phagocytose a variety of intracellular substances. It transports this autophagic material to the lysosome for subsequent degradation. The lysosomal hydrolase degrades...
