A Ferrocene‐Tagged Amyloid‐β Fragment for Rapid Screening of Aggregation Inhibitors from Natural Compounds by HPLC‐Electrochemical Detection

Abstract: Aggregates of amyloid beta (Ab) peptides are believed to be responsible for the neuropathology of Alzheimers disease. In this work, ferrocene (Fc) is attached to the aggregating core of the Ab peptides, KLVFFAE. Inhibition of Fc-KLVFFAE aggregation by curcumin, a natural compound, was monitored by HPLC-electrochemical detection (HPLC-EC). The Fc oxidation current is dependent on the incubation condition and curcumin can retain Fc-KLVFFAE in its monomeric form. We demonstrate that tagging Fc to KLVFFAE affords … Show more

“…The findings were validated using fluorescence imaging using ThT dye as an imaging agent for β-A peptides (Veloso and Kerman 2012). Electrochemical detection of β-A in combination with HPLC was explored by Zhang et al via monitoring oxidation of Fc, attached to N-terminus to KLVFFAE, inhibiting the aggregation of β-A 1–42 (Zhang et al 2013a). In this work, authors used curcumin as an electroactive component to inhibit β-A aggregation.…”

“…Amyloidosis is caused by certain proteins creating insoluble fibrous aggregates referred to as amyloid fibrils. Amyloidosis includes more than 20 kinds of diseases such as Alzheimer's disease and prion diseases, and there are many studies on amyloid fibrils using both experiments (5)(6)(7)(8)(9)(10)(11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19) and simulations (for reviews, see, e.g., (50,51)).…”
