Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Neurotoxic aggregation of β-amyloid (Aβ) peptide is a hallmark of Alzheimer’s disease and increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) is known to be associated with this. Here, we report neuroprotective effects of disulfide-rich, circular peptides from Clitoria ternatea on Aβ-induced toxicity in transgenic Caenorhabditis elegans . We show that cyclotide-rich fractions from different plant tissues...
