Beta-adrenoceptor antagonists affect amyloid nanostructure; amyloid hydrogels as drug delivery vehicles.
Beta-adrenocepetor antagonists (beta-blockers) alter the nanostructure of lysozyme amyloids, resulting in different drug release profiles.
متن کاملAlpha- and beta-adrenoceptor antagonists.
Antagonists acting on the betaor alphaadrenoceptors are used widely in medicine and in anaesthesia. The major indications for betaadrenoceptor blockade are coronary artery disease and arterial hypertension, while those for alphaadrenoceptor blockade include arterial hypertension, paroxysmal hypertension and chronic cardiac failure. The adrenoceptor antagonists interfere with important regulator...
متن کاملAmyloid Beta Peptides Differentially Affect Hippocampal Theta Rhythms In Vitro
Soluble amyloid beta peptide (A β ) is responsible for the early cognitive dysfunction observed in Alzheimer's disease. Both cholinergically and glutamatergically induced hippocampal theta rhythms are related to learning and memory, spatial navigation, and spatial memory. However, these two types of theta rhythms are not identical; they are associated with different behaviors and can be differe...
متن کاملA Preclinical Assessment of Neural Stem Cells as Delivery Vehicles for Anti-Amyloid Therapeutics
Transplantation of neural stems cells (NSCs) could be a useful means to deliver biologic therapeutics for late-stage Alzheimer's disease (AD). In this study, we conducted a small preclinical investigation of whether NSCs could be modified to express metalloproteinase 9 (MMP9), a secreted protease reported to degrade aggregated Aβ peptides that are the major constituents of the senile plaques. O...
متن کاملDestruxin E decreases Beta-amyloid generation by reducing colocalization of beta-amyloid-cleaving enzyme 1 and beta-amyloid protein precursor.
Alzheimer-disease-associated beta-amyloid (Abeta) is produced by sequential endoproteolysis of beta-amyloid protein precursor (betaAPP): the extracellular portion is shed by cleavage in the juxtamembrane region by beta-amyloid-cleaving enzyme (BACE)/beta-secretase, after which it is cleaved by presenilin (PS)/gamma-secretase near the middle of the transmembrane domain. Thus, inhibition of eithe...
