METHOD FOR SELECTIVELY INHIBITING ACAT1 IN THE TREATMENT OF NEURODEGENERATIVE DISEASES |
摘要 |
The present invention features methods for stimulating clearance of misfolded or aggregated proteins or peptides in microglia or neurons, and treating neurodegenerative diseases associated with such pathology in brain by selectively inhibiting the expression or activity of Acyl-CoA:Cholesterol Acyltransferase 1, but not Acyl-CoA:Cholesterol Acyltransferase 2. |
