A new imaging technique developed by engineers at Washington University in St. Louis can give scientists a much closer look at fibril assemblies, stacks of peptides like amyloid beta, most notably ...

Most Aβ fibril structures described to date have come from the parenchyma or the brain vasculature of people with AD. A new study, posted December 22 on bioRxiv, resolved the structures of fibrils ...

Researchers have developed a potential new peptide-based drug delivery system by repurposing fibrils that contribute to Alzheimer’s disease pathogenesis. Researchers at the University of North ...

Bucking conventional, i.e., left-leaning, wisdom for amyloid fibrils, Aβ fibrils extracted from the brains of three people with Alzheimer’s disease all twisted to the right. This is apparent in the ...

Amyloid fibrils are deposits of proteins in the body that join together to form microscopic fibres. Their formation has been linked to many serious human diseases including Alzheimer's, Parkinson's ...

Researchers from the National Institutes of Natural Sciences and Nagoya City University have achieved a significant breakthrough by elucidating the structure of amyloid β (Aβ) bound to glycolipids on ...

Researchers reveal a new fibril in diseased brains, one formed by a protein normally busy cleaning cells. Take a cell-deep tour of a brain afflicted with Alzheimer's disease, and you will find ...

Study may be a step toward shelf-stable versions of the hormone, which is used to control diabetes. Patients with type 1 diabetes have to regularly inject themselves with insulin, a hormone that helps ...
