Abstract

Alzheimer's disease (AD) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) are two common protein aggregation diseases. Compelling evidence has shown a link between AD and T2D, which may derive from interspecies cross-sequence interactions between amyloid-β peptide (Aβ), associated with AD, and human islet amyloid polypeptide (hIAPP), associated with T2D. Herein, we present experimental and computational protocols and tools to study the aggregate structures and kinetics, conformational conversion, and molecular interactions of Aβ-hIAPP mixtures. These protocols could be generally applied to other cross-seeding behaviors of amyloid peptides.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 7. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 18 May 2018.
All research outputs
#4,233,076
of 23,057,470 outputs
Outputs from Methods in molecular biology
#1,139
of 13,196 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#92,850
of 442,487 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Methods in molecular biology
#95
of 1,499 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,057,470 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 80th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 13,196 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.4. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 90% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 442,487 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 77% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 1,499 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 92% of its contemporaries.
