Soluble Aβ aggregates can inhibit prion propagation

Mammalian prions cause lethal neurodegenerative diseases such as Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease (CJD) and consist of multi-chain assemblies of misfolded cellular prion protein (PrP(C)). Ligands that bind to PrP(C) can inhibit prion propagation and neurotoxicity. Extensive prior work established that cert...
