Investigation of Certain Properties of Mitochondria Membranes Related to AD

2008

While the mechanism of Aβ cytotoxicity remains contentious, evidence is accumulating that membrane permiabilization plays a key role in the pathological activity of the peptide. This study will focus on role of Aβ oligomerization in the Aβ-mediated disruption of lipid bilayers.
