On the Environmental Factors Affecting the Structural and Cytotoxic Properties of IAPP Peptides by Marianna Flora Tomasello, Alessandro Sinopoli, Giuseppe Pappalardo

“…Herein we review recent progress in the field, focusing on the influences that membranes, pH, and metal ions may have on the conformational conversion and cytotoxicity of full-length IAPP as well as peptide fragments thereof. Current theories proposed for the mechanisms of toxicity will be also summarized together with an outline of the underlying molecular links between IAPP and amyloid beta (Aβ) misfolding.…”
