Researchers succeed in dissociation of amyloid-beta proteins involved in development of Alzheimer's disease
SEOUL -- South Korean researchers have discovered a technique to safely dissociate beta-amyloid peptides, which are toxic proteins that form amyloid plaques in the brain to cause Alzheimer's disease. The technique uses low-frequency magnetoelectric-reactive nanoparticles that do not generate heat during operation. Beta-amyloid peptides are misfolded proteins that accumulate and form plaques in the brain. The misfolding of proteins occurs throughout the lifetime of a cell caused
