Chattez avec Graph Search
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.
The peculiar chemical properties of metal-based drugs impart innovative pharmacological profiles to this class of therapeutic and diagnostic agents, most likely in relation to novel molecular mechanisms still poorly understood. However, inorganic drugs hav ...
Neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease and Huntington's disease share common mechanisms characterized by protein misfolding and aggregation, including formation of plaques or inclusion bodies. The rapid growing number o ...
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 ...
We present a study of the dynamics of protein aggregation using a common path heterodyne Bloch surface wave sensing scheme. We demonstrate the ability to detect, during thermal incubation, the early events linked to the aggregation of proteins related to c ...
The process of protein aggregation, due to an incorrect protein folding, has very important implications in medicine. An increasing number of pathologies, including Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases, are associated unambiguously with the formation of la ...
We present a study of the dynamics of protein aggregation using an interferometric Bloch surface wave sensing scheme. We demonstrate the ability to detect, during thermal incubation, the aggregation of proteins related to conformational diseases. ...
Alpha-synuclein (α-syn) is a natively unfolded protein that is closely linked to Parkinson’s disease (PD) by genetic, neuropathologic and biochemical evidence. Aggregated and fibrillar forms of α-syn are the main components of intracellular protein inclusi ...
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 ...
Aggregation and fibril formation of the amyloid-β (Aβ) peptides play a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD). The missing links on the pathway to Aβ oligomerization, fibril formation, and neurotoxicity in AD remain the identity of th ...
We present a study of the dynamics of protein aggregation using a common path heterodyne Bloch surface wave label-free sensing scheme. We demonstrate the ability to detect, during thermal incubation, the first early dynamics events of protein aggregation a ...
