How Cell Recycling Works and Its Treatment Potential in Intestinal Tissue Changes
Updated
Abstract
Intestinal metaplasia (IM) is a key stage in the progression to gastric cancer.
- Autophagy is closely associated with the onset and progression of IM.
- The impact of autophagy on inflammation, immune responses, and cell fate during IM is evaluated.
- Potential therapeutic agents that target autophagy for IM treatment are summarized.
- The review highlights future research directions and limitations in understanding autophagy's role in IM.
