Preparing Synthetic Aβ in Different Aggregation States [PDF]
, 2010 This chapter outlines protocols that produce homogenous preparations of oligomeric and fibrillar amyloid-β peptide (Aβ). While there are several isoforms of this peptide, the 42 amino acid form is the focus because of its genetic and pathological link to Alzheimer's disease (AD).

Elastic properties of anisotropic synthetic calcite‐muscovite aggregates [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 2010 A set of synthetic aggregates, containing mixtures of calcite and muscovite, were compacted with varying uniaxial loads ranging from 20 MPa up to 400 MPa. Their elastic properties have been measured using compressional and shear waves in confining hydrostatic pressures up to 475 MPa.

O-GlcNAc modification blocks the aggregation and toxicity of the protein α-synuclein associated with Parkinson's disease. [PDF]
, 2015 Several aggregation-prone proteins associated with neurodegenerative diseases can be modified by O-linked N-acetyl-glucosamine (O-GlcNAc) in vivo. One of these proteins, α-synuclein, is a toxic aggregating protein associated with synucleinopathies ...

The role of surface charge in the interaction of nanoparticles with model pulmonary surfactants [PDF]
, 2018 Inhaled nanoparticles traveling through the airways are able to reach the respiratory zone of the lungs. In such event, the incoming particles first enter in contact with the liquid lining the alveolar epithelium, the pulmonary surfactant.
