Transcription factor EB attenuates neuronal damage following cerebral ischemia via regulating autophagy-lysosomal pathway / 国际脑血管病杂志

The disorder of autophagy lysosomal pathway (ALP) is an important pathogenesis of neuronal damage after cerebral ischemia, and the restoration of ALP may alleviate neuronal damage after cerebral ischemia. As the main transcription factor regulating ALP, transcription factor EB (TFEB) can directly regulate autophagosome generation, autophagosome-lysosome fusion, and autophagic flux by regulating the expression of autophagic genes and lysosomal genes. Therefore, regulating TFEB can alleviate ALP dysfunction and thereby reduce cerebral ischemic damage. This article reviews the structure, biological function of TFEB and its role in regulating ALP to alleviate neuronal damage after cerebral ischemia.
