Amyloid-ß-peptide reduces copper(II) to copper(I) independent of its aggregation state

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is characterized by the deposition of amyloid b-peptide (Aß) and neuronal degeneration in brain regions involved in learning and memory. One of the leading etiologic hypotheses regarding AD is the involvement of free radical-mediated oxidative stress in neuronal degeneration...
