Effect of rosiglitazone on amyloid precursor protein processing and Aβ clearance in streptozotocin-induced rat model of Alzheimer’s disease
Objective(s): Increasing evidence suggests that Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is associated with diabetes. Rosiglitazone, a peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPAR-γ) agonist and anti-diabetic agent, may improve symptoms of AD. However, the underlying therapeutic potential of it has not been fully elucidated. Materials and Methods: Rats were divided into four groups: control group, sham o...
متن کاملAcceleration of amyloid protein A amyloidosis by amyloid-like synthetic fibrils.
Amyloid protein A (AA) amyloidosis is a consequence of some long-standing inflammatory conditions, and subsequently, an N-terminal fragment of the acute phase protein serum AA forms beta-sheet fibrils that are deposited in different tissues. It is unknown why only some individuals develop AA amyloidosis. In the mouse model, AA amyloidosis develops after approximately 25 days of inflammatory cha...

Statistical Mechanics and Kinetics of Amyloid Fibrillation
Amyloid fibrillation is a protein self-assembly phenomenon that is intimately related to wellknown human neurodegenerative diseases. During the past few decades, striking advances have been achieved in our understanding of the physical origin of this phenomenon and they constitute the contents of this review. Starting from a minimal model of amyloid fibrils, we explore systematically the equili...
متن کاملPurification, crystallization and characterization of the Pseudomonas outer membrane protein FapF, a functional amyloid transporter
Bacteria often produce extracellular amyloid fibres via a multi-component secretion system. Aggregation-prone, unstructured subunits cross the periplasm and are secreted through the outer membrane, after which they self-assemble. Here, significant progress is presented towards solving the high-resolution crystal structure of the novel amyloid transporter FapF from Pseudomonas, which facilitates...
