“…Primary cilia formation is induced upon serum starvation, which inhibits mTORC1 and promotes autophagy (Boukhalfa, Miceli, Ávalos, Morel, & Dupont, 2019). On the other hand, proteasomal degradation promotes cilia resorption and elimination of centriole and basal body proteins (Boukhalfa et al, 2019; Holdgaard, Cianfanelli, & Cecconi, 2020; Izawa, Goto, Kasahara, & Inagaki, 2015; Liang, Meng, Zhu, & Pan, 2016; Paridaen, Wilsch‐Bräuninger, & Huttner, 2013). Interestingly, the roles of autophagy and the use of Rapamycin have been considered in the context of COPD and Asthma, were tested in various models, but with variable effects (Kennedy & Pennypacker, 2016; Lam et al, 2013; Mitani, Ito, Vuppusetty, Barnes, & Mercado, 2016; Mushaben, Kramer, Brandt, Khurana Hershey, & le Cras, 2011; Wang et al, 2018).…”
