Calcium dysregulation, membrane leakage and Ab amyloid growth are hallmarks of Alzheimer's disease.

Abstract
Calcium dysregulation, membrane leakage and Ab amyloid growth are hallmarks of Alzheimer's disease. Here we show that Ca2+ ions inhibit membrane damage due to amyloid channels but enhance membrane disruption associated with fibers growing on the lipid surface. The similarities with IAPP suggest that this may represent a mechanism common to all proteinopathiesFile in questo prodotto:
