Abstract excerpt
Alzheimer's disease is the most common progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the abnormal deposition of amyloid plaques, likely as a consequence of an incorrect processing of the amyloid-β precursor protein (AβPP). Dysfunctions in both the ubiquitin-proteasome system and autophagy have also been observed. Recently, an extensive cross-talk between these two degradation pathways has emerged, but...
