The amount of any given protein in a cell has to be controlled to keep its levels within a range required for healthy ...

POTOMAC, MD / ACCESS Newswire / September 24, 2025 /IGC Pharma, Inc. (NYSE American:IGC) today announced preclinical findings ...

Protein aggregation is typical of various neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's, Parkinson's and prion diseases such as Creutzfeld-Jakob disease. A research team has now used new in vitro and ...

The formation of amyloid fibrils and the aggregation of misfolded proteins are central to the pathology of Alzheimer’s disease. At the molecular level, normal proteins adopt aberrant conformations ...

Yeast prions are increasingly recognised as pivotal agents in non-Mendelian inheritance, whereby protein conformations rather than nucleic acids dictate heritable traits. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae ...

Durable analytical instruments expedite the study of misfolded proteins linked to neurodegenerative diseases. To overcome these limitations, scientists developed the real-time quaking-induced ...

Researchers at the VIB-KU Leuven Center for Microbiology and the VIB-KU Leuven Center for Brain & Disease Research revealed a mechanism involving protein aggregation that allows bacteria to enter a ...

The new treatment leverages peptide-brush polymers, which act as a shield to prevent proteins from binding to one another. Polymer backbone is shown in yellow. Active peptides are in blue and green.
