Abstract Aims Amyloid cardiomyopathy is caused by the deposition of light chain (AL) or transthyretin amyloid (ATTR) fibrils, that leads to a restrictive cardiomyopathy, often resulting in heart failure (HF) with preserved or reduced ejection fraction.

Structural polymorphism of α-synuclein fibrils alters the pathway of Hsc70-mediated disaggregation
Pathological aggregation of α-synuclein into amyloid fibrils is a hallmark of synucleinopathies, including Parkinson’s disease. Despite this commonality, synucleinopathies display divergent disease phenotypes that have been attributed to disease-specific

Assessing the Catalytic Role of Native Glucagon Amyloid Fibrils
Glucagon stands out as a pivotal peptide hormone, instrumental in controlling blood glucose levels and lipid metabolism. While the formation of glucagon amyloid fibrils has been documented, their biological functions remain enigmatic.

Model for how α‐syn modulates the positioning of endolysosomes in melanoma cells. (a) α‐syn tethers endolysosomes to the plasma membrane, a last step in anterograde transport. (b) Loss of α‐syn expression causes the loss of the tethering function, which leads to perinuclear vesicle clustering. Reproduced from the open access article.

Nanoscale Fluorescence Imaging of Single Amyloid Fibrils
Amyloid formation is implicated in a variety of human diseases. It is important to perform high-resolution optical imaging of individual amyloid fibrils to delineate the structural basis of supramolecular protein assembly. However, amyloid fibrils do not

Abstract Neurodegenerative conditions such as Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease are characterized by progressive neuronal loss driven by oxidative stress and inflammation. Quercetin, a dietary flavonoid with established antioxidant and anti‐inflammatory properties, has emerged as a potential neuroprotective agent.
