Protein misfolding diseases, like Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and Huntington's disease, are associated with misfolded protein aggregation. Alzheimer's disease is related to a progressive neuronal death induced by small amyloid β oligomers. Here, we describe the procedure to prepare and identify different types of small toxic amyloid β oligomers by atomic force microscopy (AFM).
蛋白质错误折叠疾病,如阿尔茨海默病、帕金森病和亨廷顿病,与错误折叠的蛋白质聚集有关。阿尔茨海默病与小淀粉样β寡聚物诱导的进行性神经元死亡有关。在这里,我们描述了通过原子力显微镜(AFM)制备和鉴定不同类型的小毒性淀粉样β寡聚物的过程。
