Alzheimer Disease: New Target Structure for the Development of Pharmaceuticals

At present about 18 million people worldwide suffer from Alzheimer disease, a neurodegenerative disorder which leads to dementia. The pharmaceuticals currently registered for the treatment of Alzheimer are only able to reduce symptoms marginally and delay progression of Alzheimer disease to a limited extent. The novel preventive target structure, the APP-AICD/ Fe65-PTB2 complex, offers a new chance for the development of a possible pharmaceutical for a causal treatment of Alzheimer disease.

Gas transport through a metal cluster-containing crystalline solid.Hydrogen and carbon monoxide travel at different speeds due to their molecular size relative to the size of nanoscale tunnels in the structure. While hydrogen binds reversibly, carbon monoxide binds irreversibly and distorts the original crown-motif of the platinum and gold atoms into a chalice-motif.
