Amyloids are protein aggregates bearing a highly ordered cross β structural motif, which
may be functional but are mostly pathogenic. Their formation, deposition in tissues and …

The unique bacterial infection microenvironment (IME) usually requires complicated design
of nanomaterials to adapt to IME for enhancing antibacterial therapy. Here, an alternative …

Amyloid imbalance and Aβ plaque formation are key histopathological features of
Alzheimer's disease (AD). These amyloid plaques observed in post-mortem AD brains have …

Peptide assembly provides a new approach for the construction of enzyme-like catalysts.
However, low stability is still a big challenge for the peptide-based enzyme mimics because …

In this paper, a quantitative cathodic photoelectrochemical aptasensor is described by using
black phosphorous quantum dots (BPQDs) as photoactive material and assisted by heme as …

The colocalization of heme rich deposits in the senile plaque of Aβ in the cerebral cortex of
the Alzheimer's disease (AD) brain along with altered heme homeostasis and heme …

Both β-amyloid (Aβ) peptides and oxidative stress conditions play key roles in Alzheimer's
disease. Hemin contributes to the development of the disease as it possesses redox …

β-Amyloid (Aβ) peptides can bind both Cu2+ and heme cofactors simultaneously to form
heme–Cu2+–Aβ complexes, which are proposed to generate toxic partially reduced oxygen …

In addition to copper and zinc, heme is thought to play a role in Alzheimer's disease and its
metabolism is strongly affected during the course of this disease. Amyloid β, the peptide …

The high emission of ammonium (NH4+) into surface waters remains a matter of great
concern and microorganisms involved in the transformation of ammonium have raised …
