In vitro, cellular and in vivo studies of amyloid oligomers structure and toxicity: Challenges and advances

open access: yesProtein Science, Volume 35, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Oligomeric assemblies of amyloidogenic proteins, such as Aβ, tau, α‐synuclein, amylin, transthyretin, and TDP‐43, are increasingly recognized as key drivers of cellular dysfunction across a range of neurodegenerative and systemic disorders.

In silico peptide self‐assembly reveals the importance of N‐terminal motifs and the inhibition mechanism of the mutation L38M in α‐synuclein fibrillation

open access: yesProtein Science, Volume 35, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Alpha‐synuclein (αSyn) is a presynaptic protein associated with several neurodegenerative diseases. While the non‐amyloid component (NAC) region of the αSyn sequence (residues 65–90) forms the core of all αSyn fibrils, recent findings suggest that the flanking regions play a key role in initiating or preventing amyloid formation. Two motifs in

Scalable assay to identify inhibitors of prion‐like propagation of protein misfolding as potential therapeutics for neurodegeneration

open access: yesProtein Science, Volume 35, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Protein misfolding is linked to many neurodegenerative diseases. In some cases, misfolding can propagate through a prion‐like mechanism whereby natively folded molecules are converted into more copies of the misfolded isoform. Prion‐like propagation of misfolding is an attractive therapeutic target, but difficulties with assaying conversion ...

NOTCH3 CADASIL Variant Receptor Aggregation Requires NOTCH3 Wild‐Type Receptors: Identification of Highly Selective Inhibitors That Block the Process

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 6, 31 March 2026.
CADASIL is the major cause of early‐onset stroke and cognitive dysfunction, including dementia. It is caused by mutations in the NOTCH3 receptor that result in the formation of protein aggregates in the small vessel walls of the brain. We demonstrated that NOTCH3 CADASIL variant receptor aggregation is strictly dependent on interactions with NOTCH3 ...
