1 The effect of oxysterols on the interaction of Alzheimer"s amyloid beta with model membranes. Oxysterols amyloid beta precursor protein Homo sapiens
2 However, the effect of cholesterol and its oxidized derivatives, oxysterols, on Abeta-induced neurotoxicity to membranes is not fully understood. Oxysterols amyloid beta precursor protein Homo sapiens
3 Our results have indicated that oxysterols rendered membranes more sensitive to Abeta, in contrast to role of cholesterol in inhibiting Abeta/membrane interaction. Oxysterols amyloid beta precursor protein Homo sapiens
4 These findings suggest the enhancing effect of oxysterols on interaction of Abeta with membranes and contribute to clarify the harmful impact of cholesterol on Abeta-induced neurotoxicity by means of its oxidation. Oxysterols amyloid beta precursor protein Homo sapiens
