Researchers have developed a microscopy technique to visualize amyloid beta’s underlying structure, which could yield new insights into Alzheimer’s disease. As the prevalence of Alzheimer’s rises, ...

By determining the structure of the deposits responsible for transthyretin amyloidosis through a simple skin biopsy, ...

Prof. Liu Cong from the Shanghai Institute of Organic Chemistry of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, along with collaborators, has revealed the high-resolution structures of amyloid fibrils directly ...

A new biophysical study why apoE and other apolipoproteins co-deposit with amyloids and provides a structural basis for understanding how apolipoproteins modulate amyloid growth and proliferation in ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract Amyloid-β (Aβ) fibrils exhibit self-propagating, molecular-level polymorphisms that may contribute to variations in clinical and pathological ...

The pursuit of a cure for Alzheimer's disease is becoming an increasingly competitive and contentious quest, with recent ...

Amyloid-beta (A-beta) aggregates are tangles of proteins most notably associated with neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's. Despite its constant stint in the limelight, however, researchers ...

The tiny protein known as transthyretin can cause big problems in the body when it misfolds after secretion. While healthy transthyretin moves hormones through blood and spinal fluid, misfolded ...
