Downregulation of beclin 1 restores arsenite-induced impaired autophagic flux by improving the lysosomal function in cortex

Arsenite is a toxic metalloid that causes various adverse effects in brain. However, the underlying mechanisms of arsenite-induced neurotoxicity remain poorly understood. In this study, both adult beclin 1+/+ and beclin 1+/- mice were employed to establish a model of chronic arsenite exposure by tre...
