Abstract
In Alzheimer's disease, the amyloid-beta peptide (Aβ) is implicated in neuronal toxicity via interactions with the cell membrane. Monomeric Aβ (Aβm) is intrinsically disordered, but it can adopt a range of aggregated conformations with varying toxicities from short fibrillar oligomers (FO), to globular nonfibrillar oligomers (NFO), and full-length amyloid fibrils. NFO is considered to be the most toxic, followed by fibrils, and finally Aβm. To...
