Amylin receptor: a common pathophysiological target in Alzheimer’s Disease and Diabetes Mellitus
Amylin (islet amyloid polypeptide) and amyloid beta protein (Abeta), which are deposited within pancreatic islets of diabetics and brains of Alzheimer’s patients respectively, share many biophysical and physiological properties.
