AFM-Based Single Molecule Techniques: Unraveling the Amyloid Pathogenic Species

Giovanni Dietler, Andrea Cerreta, Francesco Simone Ruggeri

Background: A wide class of human diseases and neurodegenerative disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease, is due to the failure of a specific peptide or protein to keep its native functional conformational state and to undergo a conformational change into a ...

Discriminative adsorption of amphiphilic monolayer protected gold nanoparticles on amyloid fibers

Paulo Henrique Jacob Silva

This thesis presents a systematic study of how different types monolayer-protected AuNPs interact with amyloid fibers. We report a class of amphiphilic gold nanoparticles capable of adsorbing onto specific surface features on these types of protein fibers. ...

Structure of Crenezumab Complex with A beta Shows Loss of beta-Hairpin

Andrea Pfeifer, Andreas Muhs, Bing Li

Accumulation of amyloid-beta (A beta) peptides and amyloid plaque deposition in brain is postulated as a cause of Alzheimer's disease (AD). The precise pathological species of A beta remains elusive although evidence suggests soluble oligomers may be prima ...

A subcutaneous cellular implant for passive immunization against amyloid-beta reduces brain amyloid and tau pathologies

Patrick Aebischer, Bernard Schneider, Vanessa Laversenne, Aurélien Lathuilière, Marco Stampanoni

Passive immunization against toxic misfolded proteins could offer protection against neurodegenerative disease. LathuiliSre et al. report the development of a retrievable device to encapsulate cells secreting recombinant anti-amyloid-beta antibodies. When ...

Endogenous Regulators of Gamma-Secretase and Amyloid-Beta Production, and Engineering of Alzheimer's Disease Therapeutic Tools

Sébastien Mosser

Alzheimer s disease (AD) is a devastating neurodegenerative disease characterized by strong cognitive impairment and memory loss. These symptoms are caused by neuronal death, induced by two pathological hallmarks: extracellular senile plaques composed of a ...

A critical concentration of N-terminal pyroglutamylated amyloid beta drives the misfolding of Ab1-42 into more toxic aggregates

Giovanni Dietler, Francesco Simone Ruggeri

A wide consensus based on robust experimental evidence indicates pyroglutamylated amyloid-beta isoform (A beta pE3-42) as one of the most neurotoxic peptides involved in the onset of Alzheimer's disease. Furthermore, A beta pE3-42 co-oligomerized with exce ...

New Insights Into Amyloid Formation and Structure by Innovative Atomic Force Microscopy Methods

Francesco Simone Ruggeri

Today, more than 40 million people worldwide are affected by neurodegenerative disorders. Onset of these diseases is associated with insoluble fibrillar protein aggregates, termed amyloids. The molecular origin and the link between amyloid formation and di ...

Infrared nanospectroscopy characterization of oligomeric and fibrillar aggregates during amyloid formation

Giovanni Dietler, Giovanni Longo, Francesco Simone Ruggeri, Ewelina Wioletta Lipiec

Amyloids are insoluble protein fibrillar aggregates. The importance of characterizing their aggregation has steadily increased because of their link to human diseases and material science applications. In particular, misfolding and aggregation of the Josep ...

The centriolar protein CPAP G-box: an amyloid fibril in a single domain

Georgios Hatzopoulos

Centrioles are evolutionarily conserved cylindrical cell organelleswith characteristic radial symmetry. Despite their considerable size (400 nm x 200 nm, in humans), genetic studies suggest that relatively few protein components are involved in their assem ...

Probing the Unfolded Configurations of a β-Hairpin Using Sketch-Map

Michele Parrinello, Michele Ceriotti, Gareth Aneurin Tribello

This work examines the conformational ensemble involved in beta-hairpin folding by means of advanced molecular dynamics simulations and dimensionality reduction. A fully atomistic description of the protein and the surrounding solvent molecules is used, an ...

Structural differences of amyloid-beta fibrils revealed by antibodies from phage display

Hilal Lashuel, Patrick Droste

Background: Beside neurofibrillary tangles, amyloid plaques are the major histological hallmarks of Alzheimer's disease (AD) being composed of aggregated fibrils of beta-amyloid (A beta). During the underlying fibrillogenic pathway, starting from a surplus ...
