Ultrastructural evidence for self-replication of Alzheimer-associated Aβ42 amyloid along the sides of fibrils

The nucleation of Alzheimer-associated Aβ peptide monomers can be catalyzed by preexisting Aβ fibrils. This leads to autocatalytic amplification of aggregate mass and underlies self-replication and generation of toxic oligomers associated with several neurodegenerative diseases. However, the nature...
