Pharmacological doses of melatonin impede cognitive decline in tau‐related Alzheimer models, once tauopathy is initiated, by restoring the autophagic flux
3 Apr 2019
Abstract excerpt
Abstract Alterations in autophagy are increasingly being recognized in the pathogenesis of proteinopathies like Alzheimer's disease (AD). This study was conducted to evaluate whether melatonin treatment could provide beneficial effects in an Alzheimer model related to tauopathy by improving the autophagic flux and, thereby, prevent cognitive decline. The injection of AAV‐hTauP301L viral vectors and...
