Amyloid-β

β-amyloid peptide; Aβ; Abeta

Amyloid-β (Aβ) denotes peptides of 36–43 amino acids that are crucially involved in Alzheimer's disease as the main component of theamyloid plaques found in the brains of Alzheimer patients. The peptides result from the amyloid precursor protein (APP), which is being cut by certain enzymes to yield Aβ. Amyloid-β molecules can aggregate to form flexible soluble oligomers which may exist in several forms. Amyloid-β peptide is due to overproduction of Aβ and/or the failure of clearance mechanisms. Amyloid-β self-aggregates into oligomers, which can be of various sizes, and forms diffuse and neuritic plaques in the parenchyma and blood vessels. Amyloid-β oligomers and plaques are potent synaptotoxins, block proteasome function, inhibit mitochondrial activity, alter intracellular Ca2+levels and stimulate inflammatory processes. Loss of the normal physiological functions of Aβ is also thought to contribute to neuronal dysfunction.

    β-Sheet Breaker Peptide iAβ5
    Degrader 99.92%
    β-Sheet Breaker Peptide iAβ5 is an effective brain amyloid-β (Abeta) degrader. Abeta deposits are associated with Alzheimer's disease (AD), and the related toxicity arises from its β-sheet conformation and aggregation. β-Sheet Breaker Peptide iAβ5 can repeatedly induce the degradation of fibrillary amyloid deposits in vivo. Therefore, β-Sheet Breaker Peptide iAβ5 can prevent and/or reverse neuronal contraction caused by Abeta and reduce the range of interleukin IL-1beta positive microglial-like cells around Abeta deposits. β-Sheet Breaker Peptide iAβ5 can reduce the size and/or number of brain amyloid plaques in AD. β-Sheet Breaker Peptide iAβ5 is labeled with a hydrophobic benzyl alcohol (HBA) tag and shows a bright blue color under acidic conditions, which can be used for quantitative determination.
