Astrocytic autophagy plasticity modulates Aβ clearance and cognitive function in Alzheimer’s disease
23 Jul 2024
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Astrocytes, one of the most resilient cells in the brain, transform into reactive astrocytes in response to toxic proteins such as amyloid beta (Aβ) in Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, reactive astrocyte-mediated non-cell autonomous neuropathological mechanism is not fully understood yet. We aimed our study to find out whether Aβ-induced proteotoxic stress affects the expression of autophagy genes...
