Modeling the spatial propagation of Aβ oligomers in Alzheimer’s Disease by Andrade-Restrepo Martin, Lemarre Paul, Pujo-Menjouet Laurent, Tine Leon Matar, Ciuperca Sorin Ionel

“…We also include a simple representation of the oligomers neurotoxic effect. A numerical study reveals that the oligomers spatial dynamics are very sensitive to the balance between their diffusion and their replication, and that the outcome in terms of the progression of AD strongly depends on it.…”

Dynamics behavior of PE and PET oligomers in lipid bilayer simulations by Joni P. Järvenpää, Maija K. Lahtela-Kakkonen

“…In this study we used both unbiased molecular dynamics simulations and steered umbrella sampling simulations to explore the interactions of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and polyethylene (PE) oligomers in phospholipid bilayers. Our simulations revealed that the bilayers did not represent significant energy barriers to the small oligomers; not only did they readily enter the cell membrane but they also became concentrated into specific parts of the membrane. …”

Self-assembly of a strapped linear porphyrin oligomer on HOPG by Bellamy-Carter, A, Roche, C, Anderson, HL, Saywell, A

“…Here we show that highly ordered self-assembled structures can be formed via a simple solution deposition protocol; for a strapped linear porphyrin oligomer adsorbed on a highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) substrate. …”

Fused porphyrin oligomers as molecular wires and approaches to related nanobelts by Deng, J

“…This thesis details the synthesis, characterization and properties of a range of linear fused porphyrin oligomers with different metals (zinc and nickel), and attempts toward the cyclic fused porphyrin oligomers (nanobelts).…”

Self-Assembly of Linear Porphyrin Oligomers into Well-Defined Aggregates by Karnbratt, J, Gilbert, M, Sprafke, J, Anderson, H, Albinsson, B

“…Conjugated zinc porphyrin oligomers of various lengths are shown to form well-defined planar aggregates at low temperatures. …”

On the influence of the bridge on triplet state delocalization in linear porphyrin oligomers by Richert, S, Limburg, B, Anderson, H, Timmel, C

“…The triplet states of fused porphyrin oligomers (i.e., porphyrin tapes) exhibit extended conjugation and even delocalization over more than two porphyrin macrocycles, in contrast to mesoto-meso ethyne or butadiyne-bridged oligomers, where the spin density distribution in molecules composed of more than two porphyrin units is not evenly spread across the oligomer chain. …”

Conformational Gating of Charge Separation in Porphyrin Oligomer-Fullerene Systems by Gilbert, M, Esdaile, L, Hutin, M, Sawada, K, Anderson, H, Albinsson, B

“…The rate of the photoinduced charge-separation in C60-terminated butadiyne-linked porphyrin oligomers Pn (n = 4, 6) is strongly influenced by their molecular conformation. …”

Electronic delocalization in the radical cations of porphyrin oligomer molecular wires by Peeks, MD, Tait, CE, Neuhaus, P, Fischer, GM, Hoffmann, M, Haver, R, Cnossen, A, Harmer, JR, Timmel, CR, Anderson, HL

“…The cations exhibit strong NIR bands at ~1000 nm and 2000-5000 nm which shift to longer wavelength with increasing oligomer length. Analysis of the NIR and IR spectra indicates that the polaron is delocalized over 2-3 porphyrin units in the linear oligomers. …”

The role of alpha-synuclein oligomers in Parkinson's disease pathophysiology and biology by Roberts, R

“…</p> <p>The work presented in this thesis addresses two aspects of the role of alpha-synuclein oligomers in Parkinson's disease. Firstly, I describe the development of a novel technique, the alpha-synuclein proximity ligation assay (AS-PLA), which specifically detected alpha-synuclein oligomers <em>in vitro</em> and in post-mortem brain tissue. …”
