Template-Mediated Detoxification of Low-Molecular-Weight Amyloid Oligomers and Regulation of Their Nucleation Pathway

Amyloid tetramer, the most toxic low-molecular-weight (LMW) amyloid oligomer, leads to synaptic dysfunction and plays a vital role in pathophysiology of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Hence, their kinetic inhibition may be regarded as a potential therapeutic strategy against AD. However, because of their dynamic, metastable nature, not much information has been gathered about them. Herein, amyloid tetramers have been isolated from a mixture pool of...
