Combinational approach of intrabody with enhanced Hsp70 expression addresses multiple pathologies in a fly model of Huntington's disease
16 Jan 2008
Abstract excerpt
Intracellular antibodies (intrabodies) and the chaperone, heat shock protein 70 (Hsp70), have each shown potential as therapeutics for neurodegenerative diseases in vitro and in vivo. Investigating combinational therapy in an established Drosophila model of Huntington's disease (HD), we show that Hsp70 and intrabody actually affect different aspects of the disease. Overexpression of human Hsp70 resulted in...
