Islet amyloidosis by IAPP contributes to pancreatic β-cell death in diabetes, but the nature of toxic IAPP species remains elusive. Using concurrent time-resolved biophysical and biological measurements, we define the toxic species produced during IAPP ...

QBP1 Peptide as a Potential Anti‐Amyloidogenic Therapy for Type 2 Diabetes: An In Vitro Study
The anti‐amyloidogenic peptide QBP1 effectively halts human islet amyloid polypeptide (hIAPP) aggregation, preventing the formation of toxic β‐structured intermediates. Through a combination of biophysical assays, molecular dynamics, and cell‐based studies, QBP1 is shown to preserve β‐cell viability and metabolic homeostasis, positioning it as a ...

Inhibition of toxic IAPP amyloid by extracts of common fruits [PDF]
The aggregation of the 37-amino acid polypeptide islet amyloid polypeptide (IAPP, amylin), as either insoluble amyloid or as small oligomers, appears to play a direct role in the death of pancreatic β-islet cells in type 2 diabetes.

Distinct from traditional single‐function regulation strategy, both multimolecule synergistic regulation and all‐in‐one integration regulation strategies can achieve multifunctional regulation. This paper presents the research progress, advantages, and limitations, as well as applicable scenarios of the two strategies, offering prospects for the future

Electrical Pumping of Perovskite Diodes: Toward Stimulated Emission
The success of metal halide perovskites in photovoltaic and light‐emitting diodes (LEDs) motivates their application as a solid‐state thin‐film laser. Various perovskites have shown optically pumped stimulated emission of lasing and amplified spontaneous

Islet amyloid development in a mouse strain lacking endogenous islet amyloid polypeptide (IAPP) but expressing human IAPP [PDF]
Background: Several mouse strains expressing human islet amyloid polypeptide (IAPP) have been created to study development of islet amyloid and its impact on islet cell function.

This study synthesizes monodisperse oxide nanoparticles with abundant ionic vacancies encapsulated in 2D porous carbon sheets via pyrolysis of a high‐entropy precursor, constructing a cross‐scale catalytic interface. It enables Li‐S batteries with a high capacity of 761 mAh g−1 at 3 C and retains 80.44% capacity after 1000 cycles at 1 C.
