Alzheimer's amyloid-beta intermediates generated using polymer-nanodiscs
2018
Polymethacrylate-copolymer (PMA) encased lipid-nanodiscs (∼10 nm) and macro-nanodiscs (>15 nm) are used to study Aβ1–40 aggregation. We demonstrate that PMA-nanodiscs form a ternary association with Aβ and regulate its aggregation kinetics by trapping intermediates. Results demonstrating the reduced neurotoxicity of nanodisc-bound Aβ oligomers are also reported.
