Ketone bodies: more than energy, they are powerful signaling metabolites that clean up damaged proteins
Ketone esters help clear misfolded proteins in mouse models of aging and Alzheimer’s disease Ketone bodies, produced by the body to provide fuel during fasting, have roles in regulating cellular pro...

Ketone bodies directly interact with and regulate clearance of misfolded proteins in the brain! There’s still so much biology to uncover here with great translational potential. Thank you to everyone who has played a part in helping this project make it to this final form!
