    mTOR inhibition in Q175 Huntington’s disease model mice facilitates neuronal autophagy and mutant huntingtin clearance

    Philip Stavrides, Chris N Goulbourne ... Dun-Sheng Yang
    ALP alterations in Q175 brains are late-onset, mild, existing at the later phases of the pathway, and stimulating autophagy at early disease progression enhances mHTT clearance to ameliorate HD pathology.
