The role of protein degradation in neuronal cell death

In neuronal systems, the degradation of intracellular proteins, controlled by the ubiquitin-proteasome system and autophagy, is of paramount importance for normal cellular homeostasis. The dysfunction of either of these pathways leads to the accumulation of protein aggregates, as seen in neurodegene...
