Mitochondrial β-amyloid in Alzheimer's disease [PDF]
This research is supported by Alzheimer's Research UK, the Wellcome Trust and the Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council.It is well established that the intracellular accumulation of beta-amyloid is associated with Alzheimer’s disease and

Amyloid tracers detect multple binding sites in Alzheimer´s disease brain tissue. [PDF]
Imaging fibrillar amyloid-β deposition in the human brain in vivo by positron emission tomography has improved our understanding of the time course of amyloid-β pathology in Alzheimer’s disease. The most widely used amyloid-β imaging tracer so far is 11C-

Regional distribution of amyloid-Bri deposition and its association with neurofibrillary degeneration in familial British dementia [PDF]
Familial British dementia (FBD), pathologically characterized by cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA), amyloid plaques, and neurofibrillary degeneration, is associated with a stop codon mutation in the BRI gene resulting in the production of an ...

An Imaging and Systems Modeling Approach to Fibril Breakage Enables Prediction of Amyloid Behavior [PDF]
Delineating the nanoscale properties and the dynamic assembly and disassembly behaviors of amyloid fibrils is key for technological applications that use the material properties of amyloid fibrils, as well as for developing treatments of amyloid ...

Destruxin E Decreases Beta-Amyloid Generation by Reducing Colocalization of Beta-Amyloid-Cleaving Enzyme 1 and Beta-Amyloid Protein Precursor [PDF]
Alzheimer-disease-associated beta-amyloid (A beta) is produced by sequential endoproteolysis of beta-amyloid protein precursor (beta APP): the extracellular portion is shed by cleavage in the juxtamembrane region by beta-amyloid-cleaving enzyme (BACE ...

Analysis of Toxic Amyloid Fibril Interactions at Natively Derived Membranes by Ellipsometry [PDF]
There is an ongoing debate regarding the culprits of cytotoxicity associated with amyloid disorders. Although small pre-fibrillar amyloid oligomers have been implicated as the primary toxic species, the fibrillar amyloid material itself can also induce ...

Fibril Fragmentation Enhances Amyloid Cytotoxicity [PDF]
Fibrils associated with amyloid disease are molecular assemblies of key biological importance, yet how cells respond to the presence of amyloid remains unclear. Cellular responses may not only depend on the chemical composition or molecular properties of
