## Abstract Amyloid formation plays a central role in the cause and progression of Alzheimer's disease. The major component of this amyloid is the amyloid‐β (Aβ) peptide, which is currently the subject of intense study. This review discusses some recent studies in the area of Aβ synthesis, purifica

The causes of neuronal dysfunction and degeneration in Alzheimer's disease (AD) are not fully understood, but increased production of neurotoxic forms of amyloid b-peptide-42 (Ab42) seems of major importance. Large extracellular deposits of aggregated Ab42 (plaques) is a diagnostic feature of AD, bu
