    Autophagy promotes T-cell survival through degradation of proteins of the cell death machinery

    Autophagy is implicated in regulating cell death in activated T cells, but the underlying mechanism is unclear. Here, we show that inhibition of autophagy via Beclin 1 gene deletion in T cells leads to rampant...
