Characteristics of tau oligomers [PDF]
In Alzheimer disease (AD) and other tauopathies, microtubule-associated protein tau becomes hyperphosphorylated, undergoes conformational changes, aggregates, eventually becoming neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs). As accumulating evidence suggests that NFTs

Tau Oligomers Neurotoxicity [PDF]
Although the mechanisms of toxic activity of tau are not fully recognized, it is supposed that the tau toxicity is related rather not to insoluble tau aggregates but to its intermediate forms. It seems that neurofibrillar tangles (NFTs) themselves, despite being composed of toxic tau, are probably neither necessary nor sufficient for tau-induced ...

Nitrogen Backbone Oligomers [PDF]
AbstractWe found that nitrogen and hydrogen directly react at room temperature and pressures of ~35 GPa forming chains of single-bonded nitrogen atom with the rest of the bonds terminated with hydrogen atoms - as identified by IR absorption, Raman, X-ray diffraction experiments and theoretical calculations.

Stabilization of a Membrane-Associated Amyloid-β Oligomer for Its Validation in Alzheimer's Disease
We have recently reported on the preparation of a membrane-associated β-barrel Pore-Forming Aβ42 Oligomer (βPFOAβ42). It corresponds to a stable and homogeneous Aβ42 oligomer that inserts into lipid bilayers as a well-defined pore and adopts a specific ...

Paradigm study on risk assessment methodology of oligomers in food contact materials
Risk assessment of non-intentionally added substances, including oligomers, in food contact materials is of great importance for ensuring food safety. Research articles and risk assessment reports at home and abroad were collected to analyze the sources ...

Anticancer and Anti-Inflammatory Properties of Chitin and Chitosan Oligosaccharides
Previous reports indicate that N-acetyl-d-glucosamine oligomers (chitin oligosaccharide; NACOS) and d-glucosamine oligomers (chitosan oligosaccharide; COS) have various biological activities, especially against cancer and inflammation. In this review, we

Hyperphosphorylation-Induced Tau Oligomers [PDF]
In normal adult brain the microtubule associated protein (MAP) tau contains 2-3 phosphates per mol of the protein and at this level of phosphorylation it is a soluble cytosolic protein. The normal brain tau interacts with tubulin and promotes its assembly into microtubules and stabilizes these fibrils.

Study on graphene oxide modified by oligomers of p-phenylenediamine for supercapacitors
In order to obtain high specific capacitance of the electrode used for supercapacitors based on new carbon materials,graphene oxide(GO),from graphite oxidized by chemicals,was modified by oligomers of p-phenylenediamine in an autoclave.The changes of ...

Drug‐resistant epilepsy: Drug target hypothesis and beyond the receptors
Epilepsy is a chronic neurological disorder that affects more than 50 million people worldwide. Despite a recent introduction of antiseizure drugs for the treatment of epileptic seizures, one‐third of these patients suffer from drug‐resistant epilepsy ...

The Influence of Alkali Metals on the Doping of Poly(p-phenylene) Oligomers
In this study, we report on crystallographic studies that were performed on Na- and K-doped terphenyl and quaterphenyl. The data obtained via X-ray scattering and transmission electron diffraction show that, for both K-doped terphenyl and quaterphenyl ...
