Autophagy is well equipped functionally to isolate microbial pathogens in autophagosomes and to carry out their clearance by dismemberment in the course of catabolic processes in the lysosome. Clearly, this is a non-metabolic function of autophagy that impacts strongly on the immune system. While in a preceding article on neutrophils, eosinophils, mast cells, and natural killer cells our focus was on the role of autophagy in regulating innate immune cell differentiation, degranulation, phagocytosis and extracellular trap formation, here we discuss monocytes/macrophages and dendritic cells, specifically, the influence of autophagy on functional cellular responses, such as phagocytosis, antigen presentation, cytokine production, control of inflammasome activation, tolerance and the consequences for overall host defense.
