Alzheimer's Disease Immunotherapy and Mimetic Peptide Design for Drug Development: Mutation Screening, Molecular Dynamics, and a Quantum Biochemistry Approach Focusing on Aducanumab::Aβ2-7 Binding Affinity.

Abstract excerpt

Seven treatments are approved for Alzheimer's disease, but five of them only relieve symptoms and do not alter the course of the disease. Aducanumab (Adu) and lecanemab are novel disease-modifying antiamyloid-β (Aβ) human monoclonal antibodies that specifically target the pathophysiology of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and were recently approved for its treatment. However, their administration is associated with...
