Curcumin Inhibits Formation of Amyloid β Oligomers and Fibrils, Binds Plaques, and Reduces Amyloid in Vivo*

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2005
Alzheimer's disease (AD) involves amyloid β (Aβ) accumulation, oxidative damage, and inflammation, and risk is reduced with increased antioxidant and anti-inflammatory consumption.

Cerebral β-Amyloidosis in Mice Investigated by Ultramicroscopy.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Alzheimer´s disease (AD) is the most common neurodegenerative disorder. AD neuropathology is characterized by intracellular neurofibrillary tangles and extracellular β-amyloid deposits in the brain.

Protective properties of lysozyme on β-amyloid pathology: implications for Alzheimer disease

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2015
The hallmarks of Alzheimer disease are amyloid-β plaques and neurofibrillary tangles accompanied by signs of neuroinflammation. Lysozyme is a major player in the innate immune system and has recently been shown to prevent the aggregation of amyloid-β1-40

Stromal-driven and Amyloid β-dependent induction of neutrophil extracellular traps modulates tumor growth

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Tumors consist of cancer cells and a network of non-cancerous stroma. Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAF) are known to support tumorigenesis, and are emerging as immune modulators.

α-Synuclein increases β-amyloid secretion by promoting β-/γ-secretase processing of APP.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
α-Synuclein misfolding and aggregation is often accompanied by β-amyloid deposition in some neurodegenerative diseases. We hypothesised that α-synuclein promotes β-amyloid production from APP.

Amyloid‐β PET and CSF in an autopsy‐confirmed cohort

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, 2020
Objective Accumulation of amyloid‐β is among the earliest changes in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Amyloid‐β positron emission tomography (PET) and Aβ42 in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) both assess amyloid‐β pathology in‐vivo, but 10–20% of cases show discordant

Specific Inhibition of β-Secretase Processing of the Alzheimer Disease Amyloid Precursor Protein

open access: yesCell Reports, 2016
Development of disease-modifying therapeutics is urgently needed for treating Alzheimer disease (AD). AD is characterized by toxic β-amyloid (Aβ) peptides produced by β- and γ-secretase-mediated cleavage of the amyloid precursor protein (APP).

Amyloid formation disrupts the balance between interleukin-1β and interleukin-1 receptor antagonist in human islets

open access: yesMolecular Metabolism, 2017
Objectives: β-cell dysfunction and apoptosis associated with islet inflammation play a key role in the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes (T2D). Growing evidence suggests that islet amyloid, formed by aggregation of human islet amyloid polypeptide (hIAPP ...

Copper Chelation via beta-alanine extends lifespan in a C. elegans model of Alzheimer's Disease

open access: yesBrain Disorders, 2023
The leading hypothesis for Alzheimer's Disease (AD) has traditionally focused on the aggregation of Amyloid-β into amyloid plaques. However, research has yet to definitively prove the role of the amyloid peptide in the pathology of the disease.

Revisiting the Idea That Amyloid-β Peptide Acts as an Agonist for P2X7

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2020
The P2X7 receptor (P2X7) is a cell surface ligand-gated ion channel, activated by its physiological nucleotide agonist ATP and a synthetic analog (BzATP).
