Popis: Gomez-Sintes et al. have developed small molecules that selectively activate chaperone-mediated autophagy by stabilizing the interaction between retinoic acid receptor alpha and its co-repressor N-CoR1. They demonstrate the protective effect of boosting chaperone-mediated autophagy against retinal degeneration.
