Structural Variation in Amyloid-β Fibrils from Alzheimer’s Disease Clinical Subtypes
Aggregation of amyloid-β peptides into fibrils or other self-assembled states is central to the pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s disease. Fibrils formed in vitro by 40- and 42-residue amyloid-β peptides (Aβ40 and Aβ42) are polymorphic, with variations in ...

Disintegration of Amyloid fibrils using chaperones, inorganic chemicals
Protein aggregation in the form of amyloid has been implicated in more than 50 human diseases. These diseases range from neuropathic, like Alzheimer's and Parkinson's, to common diseases like cataracts. The number of people getting affected by amyloid is

Smart Nanotechnologies for Multimodal Neuromodulation and Brain Interfacing
Recent advances in smart nanotechnologies are expanding the toolbox for brain interfacing, from wireless neuromodulation and high‐resolution sensing to targeted delivery within the central nervous system. By combining responsive nanomaterials with bioinspired design, these platforms enable multimodal interactions with neurons and glia, while also ...

A coumarin‐based dual‐emission fluorophore was designed to visualize the maturation of protein liquid droplets. Upon covalent conjugation to droplet‐forming proteins, ratiometric fluorescence imaging allowed real time monitoring of droplet maturation. This probe is applicable to the analysis of droplet formation and maturation mechanisms, as well as to

Elevated temperatures accelerate the formation of toxic amyloid fibrils of hen egg‐white lysozyme
The formation of amyloid fibrils is critical for neurodegenerative diseases. Some physiochemical conditions can promote the conversion of proteins from soluble globular shapes into insoluble well‐organized amyloid fibrils.

Binding of serum-derived amyloid-associated proteins to amyloid fibrils
Amyloid signature proteins such as serum amyloid P component, apolipoprotein E (ApoE), and ApoA-IV generally co-localise with amyloid, regardless of the types of amyloid precursor protein or the organs.

Tightly focused laser irradiation can accumulate tubulin proteins at/around the laser focus, which leads to the formation of highly ordered microtubule assemblies. The assemblies can exhibit various dynamic behaviors such as radial motion, bundling, and flagella‐like rotation with motor protein and chemical energy, highlighting as a unique tool for ...
