Two amyloid-β peptides (Aβ40 and Aβ42) feature prominently in the extracellular brain deposits associated with Alzheimer's disease. While Aβ40 is the prevalent form in the cerebrospinal fluid, the fraction of Aβ42 increases in the amyloid deposi

Understanding how amyloid-β peptide interacts with living cells on a molecular level is critical to development of targeted treatments for Alzheimer's disease. Evidence that oligomeric Aβ interacts with neuronal cell membranes has been provided, bu

The amyloid-β peptides (Aβ40 and Aβ42) feature prominently in the synaptic dysfunction and neuronal loss associated with Alzheimer's disease (AD). This has been proposed to be due either to interactions between Aβ and cell surface receptors affec

Amyloid-β peptide (Aβ) oligomers may represent the proximal neurotoxin in Alzheimer's disease. Single-molecule microscopy (SMM) techniques have recently emerged as a method for overcoming the innate difficulties of working with amyloid-β, includin

Soluble oligomers of the amyloid-β peptide have been implicated as proximal neurotoxins in Alzheimer’s disease. However, the identity of the neurotoxic aggregate(s) and the mechanisms by which these species induce neuronal dysfunction remain uncer

Recent evidence supports the hypothesis that the oligomers formed by the β-amyloid peptide early in its aggregation process are neurotoxic and may feature in Alzheimer’s disease. Although the mechanism underlying this neurotoxicity remains unclear

Type II diabetes, in its late stages, is often associated with the formation of extracellular islet amyloid deposits composed of islet amyloid polypeptide (IAPP or amylin). IAPP is stored before secretion at millimolar concentrations within secretory

The extracellular senile plaques prevalent in brain tissue in Alzheimer's disease (AD) are composed of amyloid fibrils formed by the Abeta peptide. These fibrils have been traditionally believed to be featured in neurotoxicity; however, numerous rece

Amyloid diseases are traditionally characterized by the appearance of inter- and intracellular fibrillar protein deposits, termed amyloid. Historically, these deposits have been thought to be the etiology of the disease. However, recent evidence sugg

Aggregation of Islet Amyloid Polypeptide (IAPP) has been implicated in the development of type II diabetes. Because IAPP is a highly amyloidogenic peptide, it has been suggested that the formation of IAPP amyloid fibers causes disruption of the cellu
