Autophagy is a major catabolic pathway for maintaining cell homeostasis through degradation and recycle of macromolecules and organelles.Autophagy can be activated under environmental stress conditions, including reactive oxygen species (ROS).TRPM2, a non-selective trans-membrane calcium channel, can be activated by ROS that, in turn, leads to intracellular Ca2+ increase through Ca2+ influx.It is well known that ROS regulates autophagy,and vice versa.Yet, the molecular mechanisms underlying the interplay between ROS and autophagy remain elusive.Here we studied the role of TRPM2-mediated Ca2+ influx in interplay between ROS and autophagy.
