Conjugated polymers (CPs) are characterized by a delocalized electronic structure that
exhibits efficient coupling between optoelectronic segments. Excitons can be efficiently …

Because understanding amyloid fibrillation in molecular detail is essential for development
of strategies to control amyloid formation and overcome neurodegenerative disorders …

Transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSEs) are inevitably lethal neurodegenerative
diseases that affect humans and a large variety of animals. The infectious agent responsible …

The understanding of why and how proteins misfold and aggregate into amyloid fibrils has
increased considerably during recent years. Central to amyloid formation is an increase in …

This review summarizes recent advances in the science and applications of conjugated
polyelectrolytes (CPEs), with an emphasis on direct visual sensing, cellular imaging, and the …

Molecular probes for selective identification of protein aggregates are important to advance
our understanding of the molecular pathogenesis underlying cerebral amyloidoses. Here we …

In recent years, intense research has been carried out worldwide with the goal of develo**

The amyloidoses are a group of protein misfolding diseases in which the precursor protein
undergoes a conformational change that triggers the formation of amyloid fibrils in different …

The accumulation of misfolded proteins (MP s), both unique and common, for different
diseases is central for many chronic degenerative diseases. In certain patients, MP …

Brain amyloid depositions are the main hallmarks of Alzheimer's and other protein
