The startup’s lead prospect stabilizes abnormal proteins in patients with amyloid “light chain” amyloidosis, an approach that ...
Protego Biopharma is gearing up to bring its amyloid light-chain (AL) amyloidosis prospect into pivotal testing using its new ...
In a study published in the journal Nucleic Acid Research, a research team at Karolinska Institutet has performed a ...
An error in protein conformation can lead to disease. What are the genetic and molecular causes for incorrectly formed proteins? molecules. In 1917 the German chemist ...
A new study finds that taking arginine orally may lower amyloid buildup and neuroinflammation, suggesting a safe, low-cost ...
When proteins are made in a cell, they start out as strings of amino acids, which have to be folded into the correct, three-dimensional shape so they will function properly. Misfolded proteins can ...
A new study suggests that arginine, a common amino acid, may help reduce the brain plaques associated with Alzheimer’s ...
AMES, Iowa – A new screening technique outlined in recently published research from biomedical scientists at Iowa State University could slash the time required to conduct experiments on prion ...
A build-up of sticky proteins in the brain is a key hallmark of Alzheimer's, thought to be closely linked to the disease's ...
When proteins misfold, accumulate and clump around insulin-producing cells in the pancreas, they kill cells. Now, researchers, including University of Michigan biophysicists, have obtained a ...
New computer simulations that model every atom of a protein as it folds into its final three-dimensional form support the existence of a recently identified type of protein misfolding. Proteins must ...
