Novel Targets and Treatments for Neurodegenerative Diseases Revealed by Drosophila.
Neurodegenerative disorders (NDDs) such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and others lack any disease-modifying therapy due to the lack of mechanistic understanding of the disease etiology. The genetic tractability, short lifespan, and conserved cellular biology of Drosophila melanogaster have positioned the...
