Fig. 2: Identification of endogenous metabolites as protein homeostasis regulators that are dysregulated in AD.

a Schematic of the computational fragment-based strategy that we used to identify endogenous metabolites from the Human Metabolome Database (HMDB) as candidate protein homeostasis regulators that are also dysregulated in AD. b Using this approach, we identified six candidate metabolites that serve as protein homeostasis regulators (Table 1, Supplementary Fig. 1 and Supplementary Data 1).
