Abstract:

Cell autophagy refers to use lysosomes to degrade the misfolded proteins and the damaged organelles in the cytoplasm. This process can reuse the intracellular degradation substances in order to maintain stable environment in the cell.Normal cells maintain at a low level of autophagy. When a cell is under the condition of unfavorable factors, its autophagy can be activated against unfavorable factors.Autophagy plays an important role in cancer occurrence,development, metastasis, recurrence and drug resistance, but the detailed mechanism of autophagy in these areas is still unclear.In this paper, the autophagy\| related genes in cervical cancer cells and their application in cervical cancer treatment are reviewed.
