Abnormalities related to either protein aggregation or secondary structure can lead to neurodegenerative diseases. In a new study, an international research team reveals how fluoride nanoparticles, materials used in in vivo imaging, affect the assembly and structure of the amyloid \u03b2 protein. Their results present a step towards better treatment and prevention of neurologic disorders like Alzheimer&#8217;s disease.&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\n Click here for original story, <a href=\"https:\/\/phys.org\/news\/2022-07-nanoparticles-ions-formation-sheet-amyloid.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Influence of nanoparticles, surrounding ions on formation of \u03b2-sheet structure in amyloid \u03b2 proteins<\/a>&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\nSource: Phys.org&#013;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Protein function and activity are determined by both their assembly and secondary structure.
