Sirolimus 30-39 huntingtin Homo sapiens 244-254 18636076-0 2009 Rapamycin and mTOR-independent autophagy inducers ameliorate toxicity of polyglutamine-expanded huntingtin and related proteinopathies. Sirolimus 0-9 huntingtin Homo sapiens 96-106 18418060-5 2008 We found that rapamycin inhibits the aggregation of a fragment of huntingtin (exon 1) containing 97 polyQs similarly in macroautophagy-proficient (Atg5(+/+)) and macroautophagy-deficient (Atg5(-/-)) cells. Sirolimus 14-23 huntingtin Homo sapiens 66-76
