In some aspects, the invention relates to treatments for peptide aggregation associated with disease states such as neurodegenerative disease, particularly physiology associated with Alzheimer's Disease, and non-neurodegenerative disease aggregation. Other aspects of the invention provide a variety of novel assays for screening candidate drugs. Yet other aspects of the present invention provide a series of compositions useful for treatment of peptide aggregation associated with disease states such as neurodegenerative disease, as determined from these assays. These compositions can be packaged in kits. Other aspects of the invention relate to the use of these compositions for the treatment and/or prevention of patients susceptible to or exhibiting symptoms characteristic of fibril formation or aberrant protein aggregation.
在某些方面,本发明涉及与神经退行性疾病(尤其是与阿尔茨海默氏症相关的生理学疾病)等疾病状态有关的肽聚集以及非神经退行性疾病聚集的治疗方法。本发明的其他方面提供了多种用于筛选候选药物的新型检测方法。本发明的其他方面还提供了一系列用于治疗与神经退行性疾病等疾病状态相关的肽聚集的组合物,这些组合物是通过这些检测方法确定的。这些组合物可以包装成试剂盒。本发明的其他方面涉及使用这些组合物治疗和/或预防易患或表现出纤维形成或异常蛋白聚集特征症状的患者。
