  2. 1. Luminescent molecular recognition of pathognomonic and aging associated protein aggregates

    Author : Daniel Sjölander; Per Hammarström; Peter Nilsson; Uno Carlsson; Jan Johansson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Various protein inclusions have been recognized to be associated with aging and pathogenic conditions, such as in Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, Type 2 diabetes, and the prionoses Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, Chronic wasting disease (CWD), and Mad cow disease. The causative transition of protein aggregation is the alteration in the conformation of the protein that renders the protein susceptible towards self-assembly. READ MORE

  4. 2. Nanoscale organization of luminescent materials and their polarization properties investigated by two-dimensional polarization imaging

    Author : Juanzi Shi; NanoLund: Centre for Nanoscience; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Semiconductor materials (e.g., conjugated polymers, metal halide perovskites) have been widely used in solar cells, light-emitting diodes, and photodetectors. Organic conjugated systems have high mechanical flexibility and low costs for production. READ MORE

  5. 3. Islet Amyloid Polypeptide: Interaction with Amyloid Beta, Alpha-Synuclein and BRICHOS

    Author : Ye Wang; Gunilla Westermark; Ludmilla Morozova-Roche; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; amyloid; IAPP; Abeta; alpha-synuclein; Bri2 BRICHOS; luminescent conjugated oligothiophenes; Medical Cell Biology; Medicinsk cellbiologi;

    Abstract :  Amyloid, the congophilic deposits of misfolded protein, are pathological hallmarks of many common diseases, among others, Alzheimer’s disease (AD), Parkinson’s disease (PD), and type 2 diabetes (T2D). Amyloid beta (Aβ) forms senile plaques in AD, alpha-synuclein (aSyn) forms Lewy bodies and Lewy neurites in PD, islet amyloid polypeptide (IAPP) forms islet amyloid in T2D. READ MORE

  6. 4. Amyloid Maturation Patterns in Alzheimer's Disease - Novel chemical imaging of Aβ and Tau pathology

    Author : Srinivas Koutarapu; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Amyloid β; Neurofibrillary Tangles; matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-mass spectrometry imaging MALDI-MSI ; luminescent conjugated oligothiophenes; Alzheimer’s Disease; Neurodegeneration;

    Abstract : Alzheimer’s disease (AD) accounts for approximately 70% of dementia cases in Sweden. It can be of genetic origin i.e. familial form (fAD), sporadic form (sAD). READ MORE

  7. 5. Development of Functionalized Protein Materials

    Author : Yusheng Yuan; Niclas Solin; Olle Inganäs; Qi Zhou; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Many proteins are available as side-streams from food production, and in some cases even from industrial waste-streams. This means that proteins are available in large scale and at a relatively low price. As protein are highly complex molecules it is interesting to try to use protein as starting materials in for applications in materials science. READ MORE
