Additionally, UPEC co-opts ferritinophagy (a selective method of autophagy) and shuttles into your autophagosomal and lysosomal compartments with ferritin-sure iron, facilitating UPEC survival and persistence within the urothelium280. Autophagy typically causes bacterial degradation, but UPEC can block acidification and survive inside of lysosomes2
