Optimal control strategies for inhibition of protein aggregation

Abstract excerpt

Significance A range of medical conditions, such as Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, and type II diabetes, are linked to protein aggregation. Thus, it is imperative to develop effective therapeutic strategies to combat protein aggregation. Here, we lay out a general approach for optimizing inhibition strategies based on small molecules that suppress nucleation or growth of aggregates. Our model reveals...
