To determine the influence of the metal coordination sphere on the permeability of the blood-brain barrier (BBB), rats were injected intraperitoneally with aluminum lactate (Al(lact)3), aluminum acetylacetonate (Al(acac)3), aluminum maltolate (Al(malt)3) at pH 7.5, or with physiological saline. Two h

The formation of the beta pleated configuration of the amyloid peptide fragment 25-35 in aqueous solution, has been studied using thioflavin-T fluorescence as an indicator of such folding. Both phosphate and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) enhance the formation of aggregated beta-sheets.
