Abstract excerpt
Impairment of neuronal proteostasis is a hallmark of Alzheimer's and other neurodegenerative diseases. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms leading to pathogenic protein aggregation, and the role of secretory chaperone proteins in this process, are poorly understood. We have previously shown that the neural-and endocrine-specific secretory chaperone 7B2 potently blocks in vitro fibrillation of Aβ42. To...
