Background

Acyl coenzyme A binding protein (ACBP), also known as diazepam-binding inhibitor (DBI), is a phylogenetically ancient protein present in some eubacteria and the entire eukaryotic radiation. In several eukaryotic phyla, ACBP/DBI transcends its intracellular function in fatty acid metabolism because it can be released into the extracellular space.Indeed, autophagy is tied to the atypical secretion of this leaderless protein that is predominantly present in the cytosol of nucleated cells. Once released into the extracellular space, ACBP/DBI then acts on gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) receptors to inhibit autophagy via autocrine, paracrine, and neuroendocrine pathways.
