Abstract: | In 2008 we published the first guidelines paper for monitoring autophagy and interpreting the data resulting from the various assays used in our field. The guidelines paper was substantially expanded and updated in 2012. Based on the number of citations, and on comments from many users, I think it is accurate to say that the guidelines have been very useful for many researchers. Because the field continues to undergo rapid development, it is necessary to update the guidelines once again. |
