Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder that is one of the most
devastating and widespread diseases worldwide, mainly affecting the aging population. One …

Neutron scattering methods are powerful tools for the study of the structure and dynamics of
lipid bilayers in length scales from sub Å to tens to hundreds nm and the time scales from …

Fully synthetic tumor-associated carbohydrate antigen (TACA)-based vaccines are a
promising strategy to treat cancer. To overcome the intrinsic low immunogenicity of TACAs …

The aggregation and deposition of amyloid β (Aβ) peptide onto neuronal cells, with
consequent cellular membrane perturbation, are central to the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's …

A wealth of evidence indicates that lipid rafts are involved in the fusion of the viral lipid
envelope with the target cell membrane. However, the interplay between these sterol-and …

Neuronal membrane damage is related to the early impairments appearing in Alzheimer's
disease due to the interaction of the amyloid β-peptide (Aβ) with the phospholipid bilayer. In …

Liposome development is of great interest owing to increasing requirements for efficient
drug carriers. The structural features and thermal stability of such liposomes are crucial in …

Cell membranes are extraordinarily heterogeneous environments composed of many
thousands of chemically distinct lipids, sterols, and proteins. It is this very complexity and …

Neutron scattering is a powerful tool to study relaxation processes in biological membrane
mimics in space and time. Combining different inelastic and quasielastic neutron scattering …

The understanding of amyloid β-peptide (Aβ) interactions with cellular membranes is a
crucial molecular challenge against Alzheimer's disease. Indeed, Aβ prefibrillar oligomeric …
