Quasielastic light scattering study of amyloid β-protein fibrillogenesis.
Quasielastic light scattering (QLS) spectroscopy is a noninvasive optical method for studying the dynamic properties of macromolecular solutions. Its most important application is the determination of diffusion coefficients, from which the sizes of particles in solution may be estimated. The technique thus is particularly useful for monitoring assembly (polymerization and aggregation) reactions...
متن کاملBrazilin inhibits amyloid β-protein fibrillogenesis, remodels amyloid fibrils and reduces amyloid cytotoxicity
Soluble amyloid β-protein (Aβ) oligomers, the main neurotoxic species, are predominantly formed from monomers through a fibril-catalyzed secondary nucleation. Herein, we virtually screened an in-house library of natural compounds and discovered brazilin as a dual functional compound in both Aβ42 fibrillogenesis inhibition and mature fibril remodeling, leading to significant reduction in Aβ42 cy...
متن کاملKinetic theory of fibrillogenesis of amyloid beta-protein.
Prior quasielastic light scattering (QLS) studies of fibrillogenesis of synthetic amyloid beta-protein (Abeta)-(1-40) at low pH have suggested a kinetic model in which: (i) fibrillogenesis requires a nucleation step; (ii) nuclei are produced by Abeta micelles in addition to seeds initially present; and (iii) fibril elongation occurs by irreversible binding of Abeta monomers to the fibril ends. ...
متن کاملDoliroside A from Dolichos falcata Klein suppressing amyloid β-protein 42 fibrillogenesis: An insight at molecular level
A bioactive chemical constituent, doliroside A, from Chinese traditional herbal medicine Dolichos falcata Klein was isolated, purified and identified by 60% ethanol extraction, thin layer chromatography (TLC), high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. Molecular interaction mechanism between doliroside and amyloid β42 protein was evaluated b...
متن کاملApple Procyanidins Suppress Amyloid β-Protein Aggregation
Procyanidins (PCs) are major components of the apple polyphenols (APs). We previously reported that treatment with PC extended the mean lifespan of Caenorhabditis elegans (Sunagawa et al., 2011). In order to estimate the neuroprotective effects of PC, we investigated the antiaggregative activity of PC on amyloid β-protein (Aβ) aggregation, which is a pathological hallmark of Alzheimer's disease...
