Chronic low-level stimulation of autophagy through peripheral administration of rapamycin or other agents (Tian et al. 2011), or enhancing lysosomal proteolysis selectively (Sun et al. 2008; Yang et al. 2011), can markedly diminish Ab levels and amyloid load in APP transgenic mice, underscoring the importance of lysosomal clearance of Ab.
