Abstract

Direct damage and immune responses after viral infection lead to myocarditis. Autophagy is involved in both viral clearance and replication. In this chapter, we will briefly describe the role of autophagy in viral myocarditis. In addition, we will discuss the role of autophagy in dilated cardiomyopathy, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, and diabetic cardiomyopathy.
