Using advanced high-speed atomic force microscopy (HS-AFM), the team was able to observe Aβ fibril growth at the molecular level in real time. The work is published in the Journal of the American ...

The following is a summary of “Highly prevalent geriatric medications and their effect on β-amyloid fibril formation,” ...

Further insight into fibril formation has now been gained that reveals the effect of hydrophobic surfaces, including air. Previous work had investigated amyloid formation in the presence of ...

Limitations of the three putative mechanisms of amyloid fibril assembly for explaining Sup35 prion formation have led to the introduction of a fourth model — nucleated conformational conversion ...
