Identification of Causal Relationship between Amyloid-beta Accumulation and Alzheimer's Disease Progression via Counterfactual Inference [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder that is beginning with amyloidosis, followed by neuronal loss and deterioration in structure, function, and cognition. The accumulation of amyloid-beta in the brain, measured through 18F-florbetapir (AV45) positron emission tomography (PET) imaging, has been widely used for early diagnosis of AD.

Effect of Surfaces on Amyloid Fibril Formation [PDF]
arXiv, 2017 Using atomic force microscopy (AFM) we investigated the interaction of amyloid beta (Ab) (1 42) peptide with chemically modified surfaces in order to better understand the mechanism of amyloid toxicity, which involves interaction of amyloid with cell membrane surfaces.

Hauppauge, N.Y., March 1st 2012, ISBN 978-1-62100-538-4, hardcover], Chapter
10, pp.177-186, 2011 To the best of the author's knowledge, there is little structural data available on the AGAAAAGA palindrome in the hydrophobic region (113-120) of prion proteins due to the unstable, noncrystalline and insoluble nature of the amyloid fibril, although many experimental studies have shown that this region has amyloid fibril forming properties and plays ...

Changes in lipid membranes may trigger amyloid toxicity in Alzheimer's disease [PDF]
, 2017 Amyloid beta peptides (A\b{eta}), implicated in Alzheimers disease (AD), interact with the cellular membrane and induce amyloid toxicity. The composition of cellular membranes changes in aging and AD. We designed multi component lipid models to mimic healthy and diseased states of the neuronal membrane. Using atomic force microscopy (AFM), Kelvin probe

Architecture of the dynamic fungal cell wall
, 2023 The fungal cell wall is essential for growth and survival, and is a key target for antifungal drugs and the immune system. The cell wall must be robust but flexible, protective and shielding yet porous to nutrients and membrane vesicles and receptive to ...

The Budapest Amyloid Predictor and its Applications [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 The amyloid state of proteins is widely studied with relevancy in neurology, biochemistry, and biotechnology. In contrast with amorphous aggregation, the amyloid state has a well-defined structure, consisting of parallel and anti-parallel $\beta$-sheets in a periodically repeated formation.
