Overview:
The plaques found in the brain of a patient with Alzheimer's disease comprise beta-amyloid protein oligomers, which are responsible for the degenerative symptoms of the condition. In order to diagnose and/or treat Alzheimer's disease, we must first be able to detect the presence of these beta-amyloid oligomers. One of the possible methods of detection is the use of beta-amyloid oligomer-specific transmembrane receptors.
