Cell-Penetrating Peptides with Unexpected Anti-Amyloid Properties
Cell-penetrating peptides (CPPs) with sequences derived originally from a prion protein (PrP) have been shown to exhibit both anti-prion and anti-amyloid properties particularly against prion proteins and the amyloid-β (Aβ) peptide active in Alzheimer’s disease. These disease-modifying properties ar...
