Inhibition of formation of amyloid β-protein fibrils using cactus mucilage extracts
摘要:
A method of treating an amyloid disease by administration of cactus mucilage extract from Opuntia ficus-indicia is presented. Both gelling and non-gelling cactus mucilage extracts were found to induce changes in the secondary structures of the amyloid beta peptides thus interfering with formation of Aβ fibrils and aggregation of Aβ fibrils into plaques.
