A survey and a molecular dynamics study on the (central) hydrophobic region of prion proteins

, 2014
Prion diseases are invariably fatal neurodegenerative diseases that affect humans and animals. Unlike most other amyloid forming neurodegenerative diseases, these can be highly infectious. Prion diseases occur in a variety of species.

Novel Monoclonal Antibody Detects Small Aβ Oligomers More Sensitively Than Lecanemab in Alzheimer's Disease CSF, Serum and Culture Media

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Aqueously diffusible oligomers of the amyloid β‐protein (oAβ) are neurotoxic and play a role in neuronal dysfunction in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Accurate quantification of oAβ in brains and biofluids could be valuable for understanding and monitoring AD.

Analysis of Single Particles of Amyloid Beta and α‐Synuclein With Seeded Amplification for the Diagnosis of Alzheimer's and Parkinson's Disease

Biotechnology and Applied Biochemistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's disease (AD) and Parkinson's disease (PD), are characterized by the pathological aggregation of specific proteins such as amyloid beta (Aβ) and α‐synuclein, respectively. Early detection of these protein aggregates in biological fluids could facilitate timely diagnosis and therapeutic ...

Genetic code expansion for chemosensing and chemical actuation of biological functions

Bulletin of the Korean Chemical Society, EarlyView.
Genetic code expansion (GCE) broadens the chemical repertoire for precise control of protein function in biological systems. This review highlights GCE‐based sensing and actuating systems that operate through selective interactions between noncanonical amino acids and chemical triggers.

Nanomaterial‐based immune therapeutic strategies in neurodegenerative diseases

BMEMat, EarlyView.
This review highlights the immunomodulatory potential of nanomaterials (NMs) in treating neurodegenerative diseases (NDs). It focuses on their roles in regulating innate and adaptive immune responses to maintain immune homeostasis. By providing insights into these mechanisms, the review lays the groundwork for innovative NMs therapeutic strategies to ...

The power of many: when genetics met yeasts and high‐throughput

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In recent years, complex technological capabilities have evolved, driven by the need to solve complex and integrative biological questions through global analyses. New equipment allows the scaling up and automation of processes which previously were carried out on a very limited scale.

Thioflavin T fluoresces as excimer in highly concentrated aqueous solutions and as monomer being incorporated in amyloid fibrils

Scientific Reports, 2017
Fluorescence of thioflavin T (ThT) is a proven tool for amyloid fibrils study. The correct model of ThT binding to fibrils is crucial to clarify amyloid fibrils structure and mechanism of their formation.

Progression and prognostic significance of electrocardiographic findings in patients with cardiac amyloidosis

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 809-818, April 2025.
Abstract Aims This study aimed to evaluate the change of the main electrocardiographic (ECG) characteristics and their prognostic role across the main subtypes of cardiac amyloidosis [light‐chain amyloidosis (AL) and hereditary (ATTRv) and wild‐type transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTRwt)].

Transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy: Literature review and red‐flag symptom clusters for each cardiology specialty

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 955-967, April 2025.
Abstract Wild‐type transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTRwt‐CM) is a progressive and infiltrative cardiac disorder that may cause fatal consequences if left untreated. The estimated survival time from diagnosis is approximately 3–6 years. Because of the non‐specificity of initial symptom manifestation and insufficient awareness among treating ...
