    MiR-299-5p regulates apoptosis through autophagy in neurons and ameliorates cognitive capacity in APPswe/PS1dE9 mice

    Abnormalities of autophagy can result in neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Nevertheless, the regulatory mechanisms of autophagy in AD are not well understood. Here, we describe our ...
