A Novel <i>Drosophila</i> Model of Alzheimer’s Disease to Study Aβ Proteotoxicity in the Digestive Tract

A Novel <i>Drosophila</i> Model of Alzheimer’s Disease to Study Aβ Proteotoxicity in the Digestive Tract

Amyloid-β (Aβ) proteotoxicity is associated with Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and is caused by protein aggregation, resulting in neuronal damage in the brain. In the search for novel treatments, <i>Drosophila melanogaster</i> has been extensively used to screen for anti-Aβ proteotoxic agents...
