Macrophages can use microautophagy to clear damaged mitochondria, bypassing traditional pathways Macrophages are part of the immune system's frontline; they attack and "eat" invaders to protect surrounding cells. They, along with other cells, maintain intracellular conditions through macroautophagy, using autophagosomes to help digest broken cell components.

Macrophages can clear damaged mitochondria through microautophagy, a process that bypasses traditional recycling pathways and influences immune cell metabolism and activation. doi.org/g9z9pg

Evidence that mitochondria in macrophages are destroyed by microautophagy - Nature Communications Mitophagy, the selective degradation of mitochondria, has been thought to occur via macroautophagy. Here, the authors present data indicating that microautophagy also mediates mitophagy in macrophages...
