2. 1. Protein complexes : assembly, structure and function

   Author : Kristina Wilhelm; Ludmilla Ludmilla Morozova-Roche; Catharina Svanborg; Umeå universitet; []
   Keywords : HAMLET; ELOA; lysozyme; amyloid; medicinsk biokemi; Medical Biochemistry;

   Abstract :  Most proteins must fold into their native conformations to fulfil their biological functions. Failure of proteins to fold leads to cell pathology and a broad range of human diseases referred to as protein misfolding disease, e.g., Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, and type II diabetes.

4. 2. Amyloids here, amyloids there…What’s wrong with them?

   Author : Anna Gharibyan; Ludmilla Morozova-Roche; Tuomas Knowels; Umeå universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Amyloids; oligomers; fibrils; cytotoxicity; Alzheimer s disease; Aortic stenosis; S100A9; medicinsk biokemi; Medical Biochemistry;

   Abstract : Amyloid formation is inherent property of proteins which under certain circumstances can become a pathologic feature of a group of diseases called amyloidosis. There are about 30 known human amyloidosis and more than 27 identified proteins involved in these pathologies. READ MORE

5. 3. Mechanistic and morphological studies of Aβ amyloid formation using surface plasmon resonance

   Author : Md Tohidul Islam; Anders Olofsson; Ludmilla Morozova-Roche; Vytautas Smirnovas; Umeå universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; medicinal chemistry; läkemedelskemi; medicinsk biokemi; Medical Biochemistry;

   Abstract : Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia and apart from the individual suffering AD also causes a large economic burden for society. AD is associated with progressive neurodegeneration and atrophy of the brain. READ MORE

6. 4. The amyloid : structure, properties and application

   Author : Mantas Malisauskas; Ludmilla Morozova-Roche; Fabrizio Chiti; Umeå universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; amyloid; oligomers; AFM; cytotoxicity; biotemplating; lysozyme; Biochemistry; Biokemi;

   Abstract : Protein aggregation, leading to the formation and depositions of amyloids, is a cause for a number of diseases such as Alzheimer’s and Creutzfeld-Jacob’s disease, systemic amyloidoses, type II diabetes and others . More than 20 proteins are associated with protein misfolding diseases and even a larger number of proteins can self-assemble into amyloid in vitro. READ MORE

7. 5. Role of pro-inflammatory S100A9 protein in amyloid-neuroinflammatory cascade in Alzheimer’s disease and traumatic brain injury

   Author : Chao Wang; Ludmilla Morozova-Roche; Jonathan Gilthorpe; Øyvind Halskau; Umeå universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; S100A9; Aβ; Alzheimer s disease; Traumatic brain injury; Amyloid; Neuroinflammatory; medicinsk biokemi; Medical Biochemistry;

   Abstract : Background Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a complex disease with a spectrum of symptoms and disabilities. Over the past decade TBI has become the focus of research due to growing epidemiological and clinical evidences that TBI incidences are strong risk factors for Alzheimer’s disease (AD). READ MORE
