Abstract
Aβ is a class of aggregation-prone proteins, which may misfold into stable, β-sheet rich fibrils. Aβ is linked to the development of synaptic pathology in Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, a main question in the AD field is how Aβ contributes to AD neuropathology? Up to now there is little evidence for protein structural changes in diseased neuron. Our aim is to study the distribution of β-sheet structures in AD transgenic neurons in order to uncover sub-cellular mechanism(s) by which amyloid β-sheet structures are involved in AD pathology.
