NAC blocks Cystatin C amyloid complex aggregation in a cell system and in skin of HCCAA patients
HCCAA is a dominantly inherited disease which causes brain hemorrhages as a result of mutant cystatin C aggregation in carriers. Here, the authors show that n- acetyl cysteine can prevent aggregation of mutant protein in a cell model system and reverse protein deposition in the skin of mutation-carr...
