    Abstract
  • Autophagy refers to the process in which organelles and proteins in eukaryocytes are degraded in lysosomes and their degradation products are reused, and it plays an important role in cell proliferation, differentiation, and homeostasis. In recent years, the role of autophagy in liver fibrosis has attracted more and more attention, and intervention of autophagy may become a new method for the treatment of liver fibrosis. This article summarizes the process and function of autophagy and its role in liver fibrosis. These data reveal the complex mechanism of action of autophagy in liver fibrosis and point out the need to find more reliable and definite mechanisms and targets for autophagy intervention in the future, so as to provide new ways for the treatment of liver fibrosis.
