Research Abstract |
HDAC6 which is involved in protein aggregation and autophagy located in Granulovacuolar degeneration(GVD) in the brain of Alzheimer disease(AD). We found that the culture cells transfected with CHMP2B constructs would be the AD-model cell line. HDAC6 bound to CHMP2B and could regulate the acetylation level and function of CHMP2B.
