Abstract
Introduction null Obesity and type 2 diabetes are growing health problems worldwide. The three principal diabetogenic factors are adiposity, insulin resistance in skeletal muscle, and decreased insulin production by pancreatic β cells. During recent years, macroautophagy (hereafter autophagy) - sequestration and lysosomal degradation of cellular components - has emerged as an important player in these processes, playing a protective role against...
