Abstract
The article examines the use of the ISRIB molecule to treat neurodegenerative diseases such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, Alzheimer's, and Parkinson's disease. The mechanism of action by which ISRIB affects memory formation by regulating the pace of cellular protein synthesis is described along with the process of the molecule's discovery by researcher Carmela Sidrauski.
