Abstract

In article number 1903004, Oxana Klementieva and co-workers investigate amyloid-β aggregation using optical-photothermal infrared (O-PTIR) microscopy below the infrared diffraction limit, at the subcellular level. Their findings suggest that structural polymorphism of amyloid-β proteins is already present inside the neurons. Targeting the mechanisms leading to these polymorphs could provide new opportunities for novel treatments of Alzheimer's disease.
