Research Abstract |
Anti-conformational disease effects of naturally-occurring phenolic compounds and their glycosyl and lipophilic derivatives were investigated by using amyloidogenic proteins containing cystatin C L68Q variant and A β which are responsible for hereditary cystatin C amyloid angiopathy and Alzheimer's disease, respectively. As the result, it was revealed that lyophilization was more effective than glycosylation for improving anti-amyloidgenicity of the tested phenolic compounds. These observations regarding conformation-functional relationship can be useful for novel inhibitors' design as therapeutic agents for amyloid-associated diseases.
