Physics of Protein Aggregation in Normal and Accelerated Brain Aging
BioEssays, Volume 47, Issue 8, August 2025.Soluble monomeric proteins precipitate via nucleation into insoluble amyloids in response to age‐related exposures (e.g., microbes, nanoparticles). Persistent soluble‐to‐insoluble phase transition depletes the functional proteins. In normal aging, replacement matches loss; in accelerated aging, it does not.
