Revealing conserved mechanisms of neurodegeneration in a colonial chordate

2021-05-29

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Loss of the brain’s functional ability is a common symptom of aging and neurodegenerative diseases 1,2 . While the genetic and molecular mechanisms underlying human neurodegeneration are studied in-depth 3–6 , very little is known about the evolutionary origin of these traits and their involvement in loss of nervous system function in aged invertebrate species. Here we study evolutionarily con...
