Abstract

Highlights: [•] Autophagic degradation is impaired in the neurons of AD brain. [•] Impaired autophagy affects mitochondrial clearance and APP processing. [•] Beclin 1/Vps34 complex is the major inducer of autophagy. [•] Beclin 1 function is disturbed in AD brains and transgenic AD mice. [•] Mechanisms impairing the function of Beclin 1 interactome in AD will be discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
