Three recent studies report cryo-EM structures of amyloid fibrils of islet amyloid polypeptide (IAPP), which are linked to type 2 diabetes (T2D) pathogenesis. The results shed light on the structural basis of IAPP fibril formation, reveal remarkable similarities between IAPP and Aβ fibrils and will inform the design of anti-amyloid drugs in T2D and Alzheimer’s disease (AD).

启发淀粉样蛋白原纤维与 2 型糖尿病和与 Aβ 的交叉相互作用

最近的三项研究报告了胰岛淀粉样多肽 (IAPP) 的淀粉样原纤维的冷冻电镜结构,这与 2 型糖尿病 (T2D) 的发病机制有关。结果阐明了 IAPP 纤维形成的结构基础,揭示了 IAPP 和 Aβ 纤维之间的显着相似性,并将为 T2D 和阿尔茨海默病 (AD) 中抗淀粉样蛋白药物的设计提供信息。
