A possible mechanism for the enhanced toxicity of beta-amyloid protofibrils in Alzheimer’s disease

The amyloid-beta peptide (Aβ) is a driver of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Aβ monomers can aggregate and form larger soluble (oligomers/protofibrils) and insoluble (fibrils) forms. There is evidence that Aβ protofibrils are the most toxic form, but the reasons are not known. Consistent with a critical r...
