Hypothesis : soluble Aβ oligomers in association with redox-active metal ions are the optimal generators of reactive oxygen species in Alzheimer's disease [PDF]
Considerable evidence points to oxidative stress in the brain as an important event in the early stages of Alzheimer's disease (AD). The transition metal ions of Cu, Fe, and Zn are all enriched in the amyloid cores of senile plaques in AD.

Site Specific NMR Characterization of Abeta-40 Oligomers Cross Seeded by Abeta-42 Oligomers [PDF]
Extracellular accumulation of β amyloid peptides of 40 (Aβ40) and 42 residues (Aβ42) has been considered as one of the hallmarks in the pathology of Alzheimer’s disease.

Solid–Liquid–Gas Phase Equilibria for Small Phenylene-Thiophene Co-Oligomers
This work reports a comprehensive experimental evaluation of the solid–liquid–gas phase equilibria for five representative phenylene-thiophene co-oligomers (3-ring aromatic compounds having both phenyl and thienyl units).

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 ...

The HSP40 chaperone Ydj1 drives amyloid beta 42 toxicity
Amyloid beta 42 (Abeta42) is the principal trigger of neurodegeneration during Alzheimer’s disease (AD). However, the etiology of its noxious cellular effects remains elusive.
