Solvent and mutation effects on the nucleation of amyloid $β$-protein folding [PDF]

, 2005
Experimental evidence suggests that the folding and aggregation of the amyloid $\beta$-protein (A$\beta$) into oligomers is a key pathogenetic event in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Inhibiting the pathologic folding and oligomerization of A$\beta$ could be effective in the prevention and treatment of AD.

Branching Ionizable Lipids Can Enhance the Stability, Fusogenicity, and Functional Delivery of mRNA

Small Science, Volume 3, Issue 1, January 2023., 2023
Branched‐tail lipids are commonly used for the delivery of messenger RNA (mRNA). However, the exact role of the branched chains remains unclear. To address this, a lipid library is developed containing 32 different types of α‐branched tails. This library enables a systematic comparison and demonstrates that branched chains can enhance the stability ...

Aspects of structural landscape of human islet amyloid polypeptide [PDF]

, 2014
The human islet amyloid polypeptide (hIAPP) co-operates with insulin to maintain glycemic balance. It also constitutes the amyloid plaques that aggregate in the pancreas of type-II diabetic patients. We have performed extensive in silico investigations to analyse the structural landscape of monomeric hIAPP, which is presumed to be intrinsically ...

Sex-specific effects of microbiome perturbations on cerebral Aβ amyloidosis and microglia phenotypes. [PDF]

, 2019
We demonstrated that an antibiotic cocktail (ABX)-perturbed gut microbiome is associated with reduced amyloid-β (Aβ) plaque pathology and astrogliosis in the male amyloid precursor protein (APP)SWE /presenilin 1 (PS1)ΔE9 transgenic model of Aβ ...

Multimodal MRI-based Imputation of the Aβ+ in Early Mild Cognitive Impairment. [PDF]

, 2014
ObjectiveTo identify brain atrophy from structural-MRI and cerebral blood flow(CBF) patterns from arterial spin labeling perfusion-MRI that are best predictors of the Aβ-burden, measured as composite 18F-AV45-PET uptake, in individuals with early mild ...

The complementary role of histology and proteomics for diagnosis and typing of systemic amyloidosis

The Journal of Pathology: Clinical Research, 2019
The tissue diagnosis of amyloidosis and confirmation of fibril protein type, which are crucial for clinical management, have traditionally relied on Congo red (CR) staining followed by immunohistochemistry (IHC) using fibril protein specific antibodies ...
