摘要: Amyloid formation plays a central role in the cause and progression of Alzheimer's disease. The major component this amyloid is amyloid-β (Aβ) peptide, which currently subject intense study. This review discusses some recent studies area Aβ synthesis, purification structural analysis. Also discussed are proposed mechanisms for Aβ-induced neurotoxicity advances development Aβ-related therapeutic strategies. Copyright © 2001 European Peptide Society John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
