Substrate mediated reduction of copper-amyloid-β complex in Alzheimer’s disease

Abstract

X-Ray absorption near-edge spectroscopy (XANES) has been used to probe the substrate mediated reduction of Cu2+ in Aβ-Cu2+ complexes by ascorbate and the neurotoxin 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA), however dopamine and, in particular, cholesterol are incapable of reducing soluble monomeric Aβ-Cu2+ complexes.
