A common beta-sheet architecture underlies in vitro and in vivo beta(2)-microglobulin amyloid fibrils [PDF]
Misfolding and aggregation of normally soluble proteins into amyloid fibrils and their deposition and accumulation underlies a variety of clinically significant diseases.

Inhibition by small-molecule ligands of formation of amyloid fibrils of an immunoglobulin light chain variable domain. [PDF]
Overproduction of immunoglobulin light chains leads to systemic amyloidosis, a lethal disease characterized by the formation of amyloid fibrils in patients' tissues. Excess light chains are in equilibrium between dimers and less stable monomers which can

The abnormal deposition of the extracellular amyloid-β peptide is the typical pathological hallmark of Alzheimer’s disease. Strategies to reduce the amyloid-β deposition effectively alleviate the neuronal degeneration and cognitive deficits of Alzheimer’s disease.

The relationship between amyloid structure and cytotoxicity [PDF]
Self-assembly of proteins and peptides into amyloid structures has been the subject of intense and focused research due to their association with neurodegenerative, age-related human diseases and transmissible prion diseases in humans and mammals. Of the

Aggregation of unfolded or misfolded proteins into amyloid fibrils can cause various diseases in humans. However, the fibrils synthesized in vitro can be developed toward useful biomaterials under some physicochemical conditions. In this study, atomistic

C-src Enriched Serum Microvesicles Are Generated in Malignant Plasma Cell Dyscrasia [PDF]
Plasma cell dyscrasias are immunosecretory disorders that can lead to hematological malignancies such as Multiple Myeloma (MM). MM accounts for 15% of all hematologic cancers, and those diagnosed with MM typically become severely ill and have a low life

Quantitative Assessment of Serine-8 Phosphorylated β-Amyloid Using MALDI-TOF Mass Spectrometry
The study of the molecular mechanisms of the pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is extremely important for identifying potential therapeutic targets as well as early markers. In this regard, the study of the role of post-translational modifications
