Acceleration of amyloid fibril formation by multichannel sonochemical reactor [PDF]
Formation of amyloid fibrils of various amyloidogenic proteins is dramatically enhanced by ultrasound irradiation. For applying this phenomenon to the study of protein aggregation science and diagnosis of neurodegenerative diseases, a multichannel ultrasound irradiation system with individually adjustable ultrasound-irradiation conditions is necessary.

2-arachidonoylglycerol metabolism is differently modulated by oligomeric and fibrillar conformations of amyloid beta in synaptic terminals [PDF]
Alzheimer´s disease (AD) is the most prevalent disorder of senile dementia mainly characterized by amyloid-beta peptide (Aβ) deposits in the brain. Cannabinoids are relevant to AD as they exert several beneficial effects in many models of this disease ...

Advances in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s disease: a re-evaluation of amyloid cascade hypothesis
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a common neurodegenerative disease characterized clinically by progressive deterioration of memory, and pathologically by histopathological changes including extracellular deposits of amyloid-beta (A-beta) peptides forming ...

Resveratrol, a natural polyphenol found in tempeh, has not been investigated especially in vitro as a neuroprotective agent against 2-methoxyethanol (2-ME)-induced beta-amyloid cytotoxicity. Beta amyloid peptides (Aβ) could initiate neurotoxic events and

Despite of long-standing evidence that beta-amyloid (Aβ) peptides have detrimental effects on synaptic function, the relationship between Aβ, synaptic and neuron loss is largely unclear.

Brain Region-Specific Differences in Amyloid-β Plaque Composition in 5XFAD Mice
Senile plaques consisting of amyloid-beta (Aβ) peptides are a major pathological hallmark of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Aβ peptides are heterogeneous regarding the exact length of their amino- and carboxy-termini. Aβ1-40 and Aβ1-42 are often considered to

Label free visualization of amyloid plaques in Alzheimer's disease with polarization-sensitive photoacoustic Mueller matrix tomography [PDF]
The formation of amyloid plaques in the cortical and hippocampal brain regions caused by abnormal deposition of extracellular amyloid \b{eta}-protein (A\b{eta}) is a characteristic pathological hallmark of early Alzheimer's disease (AD), while label-free graphic rendering of diseased amyloid plaques in vivo is still a highly challenging task.

Recent studies promote new interest in the intersectionality between autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and Alzheimer’s Disease. We have reported high levels of Amyloid-β Precursor Protein (APP) and secreted APP-alpha (sAPPa) and low levels of amyloid-beta ...

Substantial Doubt Remains about the Efficacy of Anti-Amyloid Antibodies [PDF]
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a prevalent, progressive, and ultimately fatal neurodegenerative disorder that is defined pathologically by the accumulation of amyloid plaques and tau neurofibrillary tangles in the brain. There remains an unmet need for therapies that can halt or slow the course of AD. To address this need, the FDA has provided a mechanism,

The relationship between amyloid structure and cytotoxicity [PDF]
Self-assembly of proteins and peptides into amyloid structures has been the subject of intense and focused research due to their association with neurodegenerative, age-related human diseases and transmissible prion diseases in humans and mammals. Of the
