The pharmacological stimulation of autophagy may have cytoprotective effects, for example, in mouse models of neurodegenerative disease, whereas the inhibition of autophagy can sensitize cancer ...

In a recent study published in the journal Neuron, researchers at the University of Cambridge and Newcastle University, UK, examined the relationship between autophagy, aging, and neurodegeneration.

A recent study from Tata Institute of Fundamental Research, Mumbai, India has revealed new details about how our cells clean up and recycle waste.

The study, which was conducted within the framework of the Collaborative Research Centre 1451 "Key Mechanisms of Motor Control in Health and Disease," highlights the pivotal role of autophagy ...

Targeting autophagy in this way is a promising approach for promoting the degradation of aggregates that can otherwise form plaques in neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's, as well as to ...

A recent study from Tata Institute of Fundamental Research, Mumbai, India has revealed new details about how our cells clean up and recycle waste. This process, known as autophagy, is like a ...

By modifying this interaction, it is possible to artificially trigger autophagy, which could then enable the degradation of deposits in neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's, or support ...

Over time, the disease can also affect memory and lead to dementia. A similar condition called Lewy Body Dementia (LBD), ...
