The results provide in vivo evidence for CMA plays a pivotal role in METH-induced neurotoxicity, and upregulation of Hsc70 expression significantly protects neuronal cells against METH-induced toxicity. This research may pave the way for potential therapeutic approaches targeting CMA for METH abuse and neurodegenerative disorders.
