Autophagy is a highly conserved and regulated process that plays an essential role in cell survival. It serves as a quality control system that degrades old or damaged material by the autolysosome and recycles it into new...
Keratin is a class of biomaterial that is isolated from living organisms and is commonly used in the field of tissue engineering as a substrate for cell growth or as a scaffolding material. Studies suggest that keratin may have...
