Methods and pharmaceutical compositions comprising a low dose of a farnesyl transferase inhibitor useful in the treatment of proteinopathies are provided. These low doses are below the doses used in oncological treatments for which these compounds were initially designed. The treatment includes administering to a subject in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount of a farnesyl transferase inhibitor, wherein the amount is effective to inhibit the farnesylation of a non-Ras FTase substrate involved in the autophagy pathway without substantially affecting the farnesylation of Ras or other oncology related substrates. Treatments in accordance with the present invention may also include an acetylcholinesterase inhibitor, an activator of neurotrophic receptors, an NMDA anatagonist, an amyloid deposit inhibitor, an antipsychotic agent, an antidepressant, an anxiolytic, or an antioxidant.
