Gold Nanoparticles and Microwave Irradiation Inhibit Beta-Amyloid Amyloidogenesis

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Peptide-Gold nanoparticles selectively attached to &#946;-amyloid protein (A&#946;) amyloidogenic aggregates were irradiated with microwave. This treatment produces dramatic effects on the A&#946; aggregates, inhibiting both the amyloidogenesis and th...
