A novel inhibitor of the insulin/IGF signaling pathway protects from age‐onset, neurodegeneration‐linked proteotoxicity
22 Nov 2013
Abstract excerpt
Aging manipulation is an emerging strategy aimed to postpone the manifestation of late-onset neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's (AD) and Huntington's diseases (HD) and to slow their progression once emerged. Reducing the activity of the insulin/IGF signaling cascade (IIS), a prominent aging-regulating pathway, protects worms from proteotoxicity of various aggregative proteins, including the...
