    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 50 out of 100. Annals of neurology 2021-04-30 Biomarkers

    αSyn-PMCA is almost invariably positive in the CSF of patients with PAF establishing this condition as α-synucleinopathy.

  3. Alzheimer's Aβ42 and Aβ40 form mixed oligomers with direct molecular interactions

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 40 out of 100. Biochemical and biophysical research communications 2020-12-01 Biomarkers

    Formation of Aβ oligomers and fibrils plays a central role in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease.

    Fibrillar amyloid-β (Aβ) is the major constituent of senile plaques in the brain of patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD).

  6. Single-molecule imaging reveals aβ42:aβ40 ratio-dependent oligomer growth on neuronal processes

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. Biophysical journal 2013-02-01 Biomarkers
