Sirolimus 11-20 huntingtin Drosophila melanogaster 78-88 17486044-5 2007 These SMERs, which seem to act either independently or downstream of the target of rapamycin, attenuated mutant huntingtin-fragment toxicity in Huntington"s disease cell and Drosophila melanogaster models, which suggests therapeutic potential. Sirolimus 83-92 huntingtin Drosophila melanogaster 112-122 16497721-3 2006 We previously showed that rapamycin protects against mutant huntingtin-induced neurodegeneration in cell, fly and mouse models of Huntington"s disease [Ravikumar, B., Duden, R. and Rubinsztein, D.C. (2002) Aggregate-prone proteins with polyglutamine and polyalanine expansions are degraded by autophagy. Sirolimus 26-35 huntingtin Drosophila melanogaster 60-70 17118264-8 2006 We showed that the autophagy inducer rapamycin reduced the levels of soluble and aggregated huntingtin and attenuated its toxicity in cells, and in transgenic Drosophila and mouse models. Sirolimus 37-46 huntingtin Drosophila melanogaster 92-102 16368705-2 2006 Previously, we showed that rapamycin, an autophagy inducer, enhances mutant huntingtin fragment clearance and attenuated toxicity. Sirolimus 27-36 huntingtin Drosophila melanogaster 76-86
