Insight into the role of autophagy in neurodegeneration has been provided by studies indicating that: 1) some neurodegenerative disease-related proteins are degraded by autophagy, 2) impairment of autophagy promotes neurodegeneration in animal models and several human neurodegenerative diseases, and 3) manipulation of autophagy modifies phenotypes in animal models of neurodegeneration.
