Alzheimer disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative condition defined by the build-up of amyloid plaques in the brain and intraneuronal tangles of the protein tau. Autophagy is a cellular cleaning process involved in the degradation of proteins, including proteins directly responsible for amyloid plaques, but its activity is compromised in AD. This study showed that reducing dietary protein intake can reduce mTORC1 activity and amyloid plaque deposition in the brains of male mice with a less aggressive model of Alzheimer's disease, but not in a more aggressive model or in female mice.
