Gold nanoparticle based dot-blot immunoassay for sensitively detecting Alzheimer's disease related β-amyloid peptide.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A simple, sensitive gold nanoparticle (GNP)-based dot-blot immunoassay has been developed for detecting Alzheimer's disease related β-amyloid peptide 1-42 (Aβ(1-42)) down to a 50 pg mL(-1) level in aqueous solution. Practical samples (cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), cell culturing mediums and cell lysates) have been used to demonstrate the ability of the assay.

Development of sensitive detectors of Aβ aggregates and effective inhibitors of Aβ aggregation are of diagnostic importance and therapeutic implications for Alzheimer's disease (AD) treatment. Herein, a novel strategy has been presented by self-assembly of peptide conjugated Au nanorods (AuP) as multifunctional Aβ fibrillization detectors and inhibitors. Our design combines the unique high NIR ...

Background and objectives: Alzheimer's disease (AD) as a neurodegenerative disorder is the most common form of dementia in the elderly. According to the amyloid hypothesis, accumulation of amyloid beta (Aβ) plaques, which are mostly constituted of Aβ peptide aggregates, triggers pathological cascades that lead to neuronal cell death. Thus, modulation of Aβ toxicity is the hopef...

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder that affects regions of the brain that control cognition, memory, language, speech and awareness to one’s physical surroundings. The pathological initiation and progression of AD is highly complex and its prevalence is on the rise. In his study, Alzheimer's disease was induced with single injection of amyloid-β (Aβ) peptides (...
متن کاملMyeloid differentiation factor 88-deficient bone marrow cells improve Alzheimer's disease-related symptoms and pathology.
Alzheimer's disease is characterized by extracellular deposits of amyloid β peptide in the brain. Increasing evidence suggests that amyloid β peptide injures neurons both directly and indirectly by triggering neurotoxic innate immune responses. Myeloid differentiation factor 88 is the key signalling molecule downstream to most innate immune receptors crucial in inflammatory activation. For this...
