VDAC1‐Targeted NHK1 Peptide Recovers Mitochondrial Dysfunction Counteracting Amyloid‐β Oligomers Toxicity in Alzheimer's Disease

Aging Cell, Volume 24, Issue 7, July 2025.
Amyloid‐β (Aβ) oligomers affect VDAC1 electrophysiology and the physiological metabolic cross‐talk between cytosol and mitochondria. The use of a small, synthetic VDAC1‐antagonist peptide, derived from hexokinase, restores mitochondrial functionality, and respiration in cellular models of Alzheimer's disease. ABSTRACT Mitochondrial dysfunction has been
