Posez n’importe quelle question sur les cours, conférences, exercices, recherches, actualités, etc. de l’EPFL ou essayez les exemples de questions ci-dessous.
AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.
Biomolecules are the building blocks of living organisms and perform the most important functions in a biological process. The aim of biophysics is to understand the biological functions of biomolecules in terms of their structure: structure and function o ...
Amyloid fibrils are ubiquitous proteinaceous aggregates occurring in vivo and in vitro, with an invariant structural fingerprint at the molecular length scale. However, interpretation of their mesoscopic architectures is complicated by diverse observable p ...
By extended atomistic simulations in explicit solvent and bias-exchange metadynamics, we study the aggregation process of 18 chains of the C-terminal segment of amyloid-beta, an intrinsically disordered protein involved in Alzheimer's disease and prone to ...
One of the core pathological features of Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the accumulation of amyloid plaques in the brain. Current efforts of medical imaging research aim at visualizing amyloid plaques in living patients in order to evaluate the progression of ...
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a devastating disease affecting predominantly the aging population. One of the characteristic pathological hallmarks of AD are neuritic plaques, consisting of amyloid-beta peptide (A beta). While there has been some advancement ...
Starting from a disordered aggregate, we have simulated the formation of ordered amyloid-like beta structures in a system formed by 18 polyvaline chains in explicit solvent, employing molecular dynamics accelerated by bias-exchange metadynamics. We exploit ...
A mouse model of amyloid pathology was used to first examine using a cross sectional design changes in retrosplenial cortex activity in transgenic mice aged 5, 11, 17, and 23 months. Attention focused on: (1) overt amyloid labeled with beta-amyloid((1-42)) ...
The identification of toxic Aβ species and/or the process of their formation is crucial for understanding the mechanism(s) of Aβ neurotoxicity in Alzheimer disease and also for the development of effective diagnostic and therapeutic interventions. To eluci ...
Introduction: beta-Amyloid (A beta) plaques and neurofibrillary tangles are the main characteristics of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Positron emission tomography (PET), a high-resolution, sensitive, and noninvasive imaging technique, has been widely utilized ...
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a devastating neurodegenerative disorder which severely impairs cognitive functions by triggering neuronal cell death and synaptic loss, and finally leads the patients to death. Two main histopathological hallmarks can be found ...
