Reduction of mutant huntingtin accumulation and toxicity by lysosomal cathepsins D and B in neurons
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Huntington's disease is caused by aggregation of mutant huntingtin (mHtt) protein containing more than a 36 polyQ repeat. Upregulation of macroautophagy was suggested as a neuroprotective strategy to degrade mutant huntingtin. However, macroautophagy initiation h...
