Pharmacological targeting of MCL-1 promotes mitophagy and improves disease pathologies in an Alzheimer’s disease mouse model
Previous work suggests that mitophagy in neurons is could be therapeutic in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Here, the authors screen a library of drugs and identify UMI-77, a mitophagy inducer with beneficial effects in an AD mouse model, by binding MCL-1, which they identify as a mitophagy receptor.
