Validation of Fucoxanthin from Microalgae <em>Phaeodactylum tricornutum</em> for the Detection of Amyloid Burden in Transgenic Mouse Models of Alzheimer’s Disease
The visualization of misfolded Aβ peptides by using fluorescence chemical dyes is very important in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) diagnosis. Here, we describe the fluorescent substance, fucoxanthin, which detects Aβ aggregates in the brain of AD transgenic mouse models. We found that fucoxanthin from the...
