Abstract
Eukaryotic cells maintain cellular homeostasis by regulating the process of protein degradation and organelle turnover.Autophagy is a ubiquitin-like degradation process,and plays an essential role in cellular development,differentiation,and elimination of damaged organelles and protein.Previous studies mostly focused autophagy on tumor and neurodegenerative diseases,whereas studies about autophagy and energy remain not clear.Since 2009,an increasing number of studies have showed light on the importance of autophagy in regulating lipid metabolism.The review focuses on the relationship between autophagy and differentiation of adipocytes,lipogenesis,and lipolysis. Key words: Autophagy ; Energy metabolism
