Abstract: Structural mechanisms underlying the mechanical properties of fibrin fibers are elusive. We combined tensile testing of uncrosslinked fibrin polymers in vitro and in silico to explore their material properties. The experimental stress (σ) - strain… read more here.

Abstract: The amyloid beta (Aβ) fibrillar aggregate is the hallmark of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Disassembling preformed fibril or inhibiting Aβ aggregation is considered as a therapeutic strategy for AD. Increasing evidence shows that green tea extracts,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1021/acsomega.8b02672
Abstract: Aggregation of amyloid beta (Aβ) peptides leads to formation of fibrilar, soluble oligomers, and their deposition is a key event in progression of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Recent experimental studies of Arg-Arg-7-amino-4-trifluoromethylcoumarin (RR-AFC) showed significant Aβ… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fmolb.2021.624302
Abstract: Aggregates of the microtubule associated tau protein are a major constituent of neurofibrillary lesions that define Alzheimer’s disease (AD) pathology. Increasing experimental evidence suggests that the spread of tau neurofibrillary tangles results from a prion-like… read more here.
