Peptide nanostructures block amyloid buildup and boost neuron survival in lab tests

Researchers developed trehalose-functionalized peptide amphiphiles (TPAs) that self-assemble into supramolecular nanostructures and demonstrated these TPAs can inhibit amyloid beta aggregation. In vitro, TPAs significantly improved survival of human neurons exposed to amyloid-induced neurotoxicity, suggesting therapeutic potential for neurodegenerative diseases.
