The amyloid-β oligomer hypothesis: beginning of the third decade
The amyloid-β oligomer (AβO) hypothesis was introduced in 1998. It proposed that the brain
damage leading to Alzheimer's disease (AD) was instigated by soluble, ligand-like AβOs …

A hairpin motif in the amyloid-β peptide is important for formation of disease-related oligomers
The amyloid-β (Aβ) peptide is associated with the development of Alzheimer's disease and
is known to form highly neurotoxic prefibrillar oligomeric aggregates, which are difficult to …
