Inhibition of Beta-Amyloid Fibrillation by Luminescent Iridium(III) Complex Probes

We report herein the application of kinetically inert luminescent iridium(III) complexes as dual inhibitors and probes of beta-amyloid fibrillogenesis. These iridium(III) complexes inhibited Aβ(1–40) peptide aggregation in vitro, and protected against Aβ-induced cytotoxicity in neuronal cells. Furth...

description We report herein the application of kinetically inert luminescent iridium(III) complexes as dual inhibitors and probes of beta-amyloid fibrillogenesis. These iridium(III) complexes inhibited Aβ(1–40) peptide aggregation in vitro, and protected against Aβ-induced cytotoxicity in neuronal cells. Furthermore, the complexes differentiated between the aggregated and unaggregated forms of Aβ(1–40) peptide on the basis of their emission response.
