Analysis of Toxic Amyloid Fibril Interactions at Natively Derived Membranes by Ellipsometry.

There is an ongoing debate regarding the culprits of cytotoxicity associated with amyloid disorders. Although small pre-fibrillar amyloid oligomers have been implicated as the primary toxic species, the fibrillar amyloid material itself can also induce cytotoxicity. To investigate membrane disruptio...
