Amyloid β protein(β淀粉样蛋白)

Amyloid beta ( or Abeta) denotes peptides of 36–43 amino acids that are the main component of the amyloid plaques found in the brains of people with Alzheimer's disease. The peptides derive from the amyloid precursor protein (APP), which is cleaved by beta secretase and gamma secretase to yield Aβ. Aβ molecules can aggregate to form flexible soluble oligomers which may exist in several forms. It is now believed that certain misfolded oligomers (known as "seeds") can induce other Aβ molecules to also take the misfolded oligomeric form, leading to a chain reaction akin to a prion infection. The oligomers are toxic to nerve cells. The other protein implicated in Alzheimer's disease, tau protein, also forms such prion-like misfolded oligomers, and there is some evidence that misfolded Aβ can induce tau to misfold.

The normal function of Aβ is not well understood. Though some animal studies have shown that the absence of Aβ does not lead to any obvious loss of physiological function, several potential activities have been discovered for Aβ, including activation of kinase enzymes, protection against oxidative stress, regulation of cholesterol transport, functioning as a transcription factor, and anti-microbial activity (potentially associated with Aβ's pro-inflammatory activity).

The glymphatic system clears metabolic waste from the mammalian brain, and in particular amyloid beta. Indeed, a number of proteases have been implicated by both genetic and biochemical studies as being responsible for the recognition and degradation of amyloid beta; these include insulin degrading enzyme.and presequence protease. The rate of removal is significantly increased during sleep. However, the significance of the lymphatic system in Aβ clearance in Alzheimer's disease is unknown.

  7. GA23601 Teplow's Amyloid β-Protein (1-42) (scrambled II) This peptide is a specifically designed negative control in studies with Abeta42. It is "scrambled", which means it contains the same amino acids as Abeta42, but in different order. Referring to studies by Yamin and coworkers, Teplow's Amyloid β-Protein (1-42) does not show a number of phenomena regularly observed with Abeta42 (fibril formation, oligomerization, toxicity to neurons) and furthermore has a relatively flat hydropathy profile, which can be an advantage in several studies, for example in order to avoid unspecific interaction with the cell membrane.

  28. GA20754 Amyloid β-Protein (4-42) Aβ 4-42 could be one of the earliest and most prominent Aβ species deposited in AD brain. Sequencing of amyloid plaque cores showed that 64% of the isolated Aβ had a phenylalanine at its N-terminus, and indeed, IP/MS experiments identified Aβ 4-42 as a major Aβ species in AD patients. Additionally, Aβ 4-42 was found to be a component of cotton wool plaques in familial AD patients with the V261I PS1 mutation. Aβ 4-42 was discovered as well in amyloid deposits from vascular dementia and familial Danish dementia patients. These observations indicate that Aβ 4-42 may contribute to the development of multiple CNS diseases.

GA20739 Amyloid β-Protein (1-6) amide Experiments using sub-peptides of Aβ42 revealed that the epitope identified by the antibody A8, as described by Ying and coworkers, lies within the 1-6 region of Aβ. The antibody displays high affinity for soluble Aβ42 oligomers in the molecular weight range of 16.5-25 kDa, and detected target antigen in brain sections from senescence-accelerated SAMP 8 mice.
