Researchers from Osaka University find that peristaltic pump action and high shear flow forces promote amyloid nucleation.

Alzheimer's disease is likely caused by stalled protein processing in the brain, according to a new study. For several decades, researchers studying Alzheimer's disease have been working to ...

Swiss researchers from ETH Zurich developed a process to extract gold from electronic waste using whey proteins from cheese ...

Although my colleagues and I and many others have published extensively on the amyloid mechanism, my lab was also one of four that discovered the tau protein in the tangles. It is patently false ...

Researchers from Osaka University found that peristaltic pump flow mechanically breaks supersaturation to induce amyloid ...

A single injection of Alnylam’s RNA interference candidate ALN-APP – which is designed to switch off the production of amyloid precursor protein (APP) in the central nervous system – was ...

This mechanism, which involves extracellular accumulation of a 56 kDa soluble amyloid-β (Aβ ... Their results suggest that other soluble protein assemblies could also have a role in inducing ...

202310642 By heating whey protein to 194 degrees Fahrenheit and submerging it in an acid bath, the team created amyloid ...

A leading hypothesis is that these events are mediated by neurotoxicity of amyloid β-protein (Aβ), a 40- to 42-amino-acid peptide derived from the amyloid β-protein precursor (APP) that is the ...

Increasing focus is now being placed on the production of Aβ – a process called proteolysis, during which a precursor protein called amyloid precursor protein (APP) is trimmed by an enzyme ...
