Accumulation of amyloid in breast cancer is a well‐known phenomenon, but only immunoglobulin light‐chain amyloidosis (AL) or transthyretin (TTR) amyloid had been detected in human breast tumor samples previously.

Effects of methylglyoxal on amyloid‐beta peptide
Diabetics exhibit elevated levels of carbohydrates and their oxidized byproducts such as methylglyoxal (MGO). With the excess production and accumulation of the amyloid‐beta peptide (ABP) in AD, the linkage between diabetes and AD may involve ABP and MGO. We studied the effects of MGO‐induced ABP modification on conformational properties. Human isoform

Stabilizing the Retromer Complex in a Human Stem Cell Model of Alzheimer's Disease Reduces TAU Phosphorylation Independently of Amyloid Precursor Protein. [PDF]
Developing effective therapeutics for complex diseases such as late-onset, sporadic Alzheimer's disease (SAD) is difficult due to genetic and environmental heterogeneity in the human population and the limitations of existing animal models. Here, we used

Peptide Sequencing With Single Acid Resolution Using a Sub‐Nanometer Diameter Pore
To sequence a single molecule of Aβ1−42–sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), the aggregate is forced through a sub‐nanopore 0.4 nm in diameter spanning a 4.0 nm thick membrane. The figure is a visual molecular dynamics (VMD) snapshot depicting the translocation of Aβ1−42–SDS through the pore; only the peptide, the SDS, the Na+ (yellow/green) and Cl− (cyan ...

The Beta Amyloid Dysfunction (BAD) Hypothesis for Alzheimer’s Disease
Beta amyloid, Aβ 1–42, originally named as Amyloid A4 protein, is one of the most investigated peptides in neuroscience and has attracted substantial interest since its discovery as the main insoluble fibril-type protein in cerebrovascular amyloid ...

Accumulation of Innate Amyloid Beta Peptide in Glioblastoma Tumors [PDF]
Immunostaining with specific antibodies has shown that innate amyloid beta (Aβ) is accumulated naturally in glioma tumors and nearby blood vessels in a mouse model of glioma. In immunofluorescence images, Aβ peptide coincides with glioma cells, and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) have shown that Aβ peptide is enriched in the membrane protein ...

Hypoxic regulation of ion channel function and expression [PDF]
Acute hypoxia regulates the activity of specific ion channels in a rapid and reversible manner. Such effects underlie appropriate cellular responses to hypoxia which are designed to initiate cardiorespiratory reflexes and contribute importantly to other ...

Recombinant Proteins: A Molecular Tool to Understand Marine Adhesion and to Advance Biomaterials
The production of recombinant proteins represents a fundamental step in the characterisation of marine invertebrate adhesives and in the development of bio‐inspired glues. The association of these proteins with other components such as ions, proteins, polysaccharides, or polymers enables the fabrication of biomaterials for various healthcare ...
