Abstract
Autophagy delivers damaged cytoplasmic constituents to lysosomes for degradation, thus preserving cellular integrity and protecting against disease. Remarkably, autophagy-deficient cells also exhibit aberrant DNA damage responses with therapeutic implications, such as suppression of checkpoint kinase-1 function, impaired DNA double-strand break repair by homologous recombination, and increased reliance on error-prone non-homologous end-joining for survival.
