D-Trp-Aib | D-Trp-Aib is a dipeptide and amyloid-β inhibitor with a Kd of 29.6 nM. D-Trp-Aib triggers formation of non-toxic, non-β-sheet, amorphous amyloid β clusters from misfolded amyloid β monomers and toxic amyloid β oligomers, and reduces toxic amyloid β1-42 deposits. D-Trp-Aib inhibits amyloid fibril formation of α‑synuclein, IAPP and calcitonin. D-Trp-Aib can be used for the research of Alzheimer's disease. | |||||||||||||||||||||
