New Insights on How Metals Disrupt Amyloid β-Aggregation and Their Effects on Amyloid-β Cytotoxicity
Open accessAbstract
Amyloid-beta protein (A beta) aggregates in the brain to form senile plaques. By using thioflavin T, a dye that specifically binds to fibrillar structures, we found that metals such as Zn(II) and Cu(II) normally inhibit amyloid beta-aggregation. Another method for detecting A beta, which does not distinguish the types of aggregates, showed that these metals induce a non-beta-sheeted aggregation, as reported previously. Secondary structural analysis and microscopic studies revealed that metals induced A beta to make non-fibrillar aggregates by disrupting beta-sheet formation. These non-fibrillar A beta aggregates displayed much weaker Congo Red birefringence, and in separate cell culture experiments, were less toxic than self beta-aggregates, as demonstrated by 3-[4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl]-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide assay. The toxicity of soluble A beta was enhanced in the presence of Cu(II), which suggests the previously hypothesized role of A beta in generating oxidative stress. Finally, under an acidic condition, similar to that in the inflammation associated with senile plaques, beta-aggregation was robustly facilitated at one specific concentration of Zn(II) in the presence of heparin. However, because a higher concentration of Zn(II) virtually abolished this abnormal phenomenon, and at normal pH any concentrations strongly inhibit beta-aggregation and its associated cytotoxicity, including its anti-oxidative nature we suggest that Zn(II) has an overall protective ef…

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
