Non-A.beta. Component of Alzheimer's Disease Amyloid (NAC) is Amyloidogenic
The non-A beta component of Alzheimer's disease (AD) amyloid (NAC) was identified biochemically as the second major component in the amyloid purified from brain tissue of AD pat...
Protein fibrils in nature can enhance amyloid protein A amyloidosis in mice: Cross-seeding as a disease mechanism
Secondary, or amyloid protein A (AA), amyloidosis is a complication of chronic inflammatory diseases, both infectious and noninfectious. AA constitutes the insoluble fibrils, wh...
Amyloid accomplices and enforcers
Abstract Amyloid‐related diseases are often ascribed to protein “misfolding.” Yet in the absence of high‐resolution structures for mature fibrils or intermediates, the connectio...
Protein Misfolding, Functional Amyloid, and Human Disease
Peptides or proteins convert under some conditions from their soluble forms into highly ordered fibrillar aggregates. Such transitions can give rise to pathological conditions r...
Potentially Amyloidogenic, Carboxyl-Terminal Derivatives of the Amyloid Protein Precursor
The 39- to 43-amino acid amyloid β protein (βAP), which is deposited as amyloid in Alzheimer's disease, is encoded as an internal peptide that begins 99 residues from the carbox...
