β amyloid (1 11)

Anionic interaction of Beta-amyloid (1-11) with Factor XII is suspected to cause massive activation of the C4 (complement 4) system in the cerebrospinal fluid of Alzheimer's disease patients.

β-amyloid 1-11 acetate is a fragment of Amyloid-β peptide, maybe used in the research of neurological disease.

Amyloid-β (25-35) (Aβ (25-35)) is an 11-residue fragment of the Aβ protein that retains the physical and biological characteristics of the full length peptide. It forms fibrils that react to thioflavin T and Congo red and are organized in a cross-β arrangement of β-strands similar to Aβ (1-40) and Aβ (1-42) fibrils. Aggregated Aβ (25-35) decreases the viability of rat adrenal PC12 cells. It also decreases the viability of primary rat cortical neurons at concentrations ranging from 1 nM to 30 μM. In vivo, intracerebral injection of Aβ (25-35) (20 nmol) in rats induces lesions of neuronal and tissue loss. Aggregated Aβ (25-35) administered intracerebroventricularly to rats induces learning and memory impairments in the Y-maze, novel object recognition, and contextual fear conditioning tests.

(Pyr11)-Amyloid β-Protein (11-40) (Aβ11pE-40), a peptide, is utilized in Alzheimer's disease research [1].
