HSC70 expression is reduced in lymphomonocytes of sporadic ALS patients and contributes to TDP-43 accumulation

Aim: The demonstration that chaperone-mediated autophagy (CMA) contributes to the degradation of TDP-43, the main constituent of cytoplasmic inclusions typically found in motor neurons of patients with sporadic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (sALS), has pointed out a possible involvement of CMA in aggregate formation. To explore this possibility, in this study, we verified the presence of a possible systemic CMA...
