Cross-domain binding of anti-fibrillation peptide TNGQ to islet amyloid polypeptide provides cytoprotective effects in giant unilamellar vesicles and pancreatic β-cells
{{output}}
Islet amyloid polypeptide (IAPP) fibrillation induces β-cell dysfunction and toxicity in patients with type 2 diabetes. Cytotoxicity is caused by the ability of IAPP fibrils and fibrillar intermediates to permeate the cellular membrane of pancreatic β-cells,... ...
