Amyloid oligomers: A joint experimental/computational perspective on Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, type II diabetes, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis
Protein misfolding and aggregation is observed in many amyloidogenic diseases affecting
either the central nervous system or a variety of peripheral tissues. Structural and dynamic …

Amyloid-type protein aggregation and prion-like properties of amyloids
This review will focus on the process of amyloid-type protein aggregation. Amyloid fibrils are
an important hallmark of protein misfolding diseases and therefore have been investigated …

Amid controversy, the cellular form of the prion protein PrPc has been proposed to mediate
oligomeric amyloid-β (Aβ)-induced deficits. In contrast, there is consistent evidence that the …
