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 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...
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...
A monoclonal antibody against synthetic Aβ dimer assemblies neutralizes brain‐derived synaptic plasticity‐disrupting Aβ
J. Neurochem. (2011) 119 , 189–201. Abstract Diverse lines of evidence indicate that pre‐fibrillar, diffusible assemblies of the amyloid β‐protein (Aβ) play an important role in...
