The autophagy protein Def8 is altered in Alzheimer's disease and Aβ42-expressing Drosophila brains
Abstract Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common neurodegenerative disorder, characterized by protein accumulation in the brain as a main neuropathological hallmark. Among them, Aβ42 peptides tend to aggregate and create oligomers and plaques. Macroautophagy, a form of autophagy characteriz...
