Age-Related Decrease in Heat Shock 70-kDa Protein 8 in Cerebrospinal Fluid is Associated with Increased Oxidative Stress

Age-associated declines in protein homeostasis mechanisms (proteostasis) are thought to contribute to age-related neurodegenerative disorders. The increased oxidative stress which occurs with aging can activate a key proteostatic process, chaperone-mediated autophagy. This study investigated age-rel...
