Caloric restriction blocks neuropathology and motor deficits in Machado–Joseph disease mouse models through SIRT1 pathway
SIRTs have been reported to provide neuroprotective actions in polyglutamine diseases, and are linked to the beneficial effects of caloric restrictive diets. Here, the authors show caloric restriction improves behavioural and neuropathological deficits in MJD model mice, an effect dependent on SIRT1...
