Accelerated Amyloid Beta Pathogenesis by Bacterial Amyloid FapC [PDF]
The gut–brain axis has attracted increasing attention in recent years, fueled by accumulating symptomatic, physiological, and pathological findings. In this study, the aggregation and toxicity of amyloid beta (Aβ), the pathogenic peptide associated with ...

Amyloid Alpha: The Neglected Cousin of Amyloid Beta. [PDF]
For decades, amyloid β (Aβ) has been the principal therapeutic target for therapies of Alzheimer's disease (AD). An alternative processing product, known as P3, may form if the amyloid precursor protein is cleaved by α‐secretase instead of β‐secretase.

Familial Alzheimer’s Disease (FAD) caused by Presenilin-1 (PS1) mutations is characterized by early onset, cognitive impairment, and dementia. Impaired gamma secretase function favors production of longer beta-amyloid species in PS1 FAD.

The amyloid-beta wave hypothesis of Alzheimer’s disease [PDF]
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a complex and multifactorial disorder that affects all races and genders. Genetic traits influenced by lifestyle and environment lead to a tremendous amount of heterogeneity in Alzheimer’s disease onset and severity ...

Amyloid-beta peptide and tau protein crosstalk in Alzheimer’s disease
Alzheimer’s disease is a neurodegenerative disease that accounts for most of the 50-million dementia cases worldwide in 2018. A large amount of evidence supports the amyloid cascade hypothesis, which states that amyloid-beta accumulation triggers tau ...

Amyloid‐Beta Interaction with Mitochondria [PDF]
Mitochondrial dysfunction is a hallmark of amyloid‐beta(Aβ)‐induced neuronal toxicity in Alzheimer′s disease (AD). The recent emphasis on the intracellular biology of Aβ and its precursor protein (AβPP) has led researchers to consider the possibility that mitochondria‐associated and/or intramitochondrial Aβ may directly cause neurotoxicity.

Lowering beta-amyloid levels rescues learning and memory in a Down syndrome mouse model. [PDF]
beta-amyloid levels are elevated in Down syndrome (DS) patients throughout life and are believed to cause Alzheimer's disease (AD) in adult members of this population.

Beta amyloid deposition and cognitive decline in Parkinson’s disease: a study of the PPMI cohort
The accumulation of beta amyloid in the brain has a complex and poorly understood impact on the progression of Parkinson’s disease pathology and much controversy remains regarding its role, specifically in cognitive decline symptoms.

Small-angle X-ray scattering characterization of a $$\beta $$ β -amyloid model in phantoms
Objective We present a method to prepare an amyloid model at scalable quantities for phantom studies to evaluate small-angle x-ray scattering systems for amyloid detection. Two amyloid models were made from a plasma protein with and without heating. Both
