Heat Shock Proteins and the Brain: Implications for Neurodegenerative Diseases and Neuroprotection
With the prevalence of neurodegenerative diseases on the rise as average life expectancy increases, the hunt for effective treatments and preventive measures for these disorders is a pressing challenge. Neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease, Huntington’s disease, Parkinson’s diseas...
