Researchers design proteins that can be utilized to combat Alzheimer’s disease

by New York University A team of researchers, led by NYU Abu Dhabi Assistant Professor of Biology Mazin Magzoub, has developed small proteins called cell-penetrating peptides (CPPs) that prevent the aggregation of the amyloid-β (Aβ) protein associated with Alzheimer’s disease. There is a growing interest in the use of proteins to develop treatments because they...
