Autophagy regulates lipid metabolism through selective turnover of NCoR1

Defective autophagy has been associated with metabolic disorders. Here Saito et al. show that autophagy promotes the selective degradation of NCoR1, a repressor of lipid metabolism regulator PPARα, in response to starvation, and thus induces the expression of enzymes involved in lipid oxidation and...
