The carboxy-terminal globular domain (G-domain) of the laminin โฃ1 chain has been shown to promote heparin binding, cell adhesion, and neurite outgrowth. In this study, we defined the potential sequences originating from the G-domain of laminin โฃ1 chain which possess these functional activities. A se
โค-Amyloid protein (Aโค) is a major component of neuritic plaques and cerebrovascular amyloid deposits in the brains of patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD). Inhibitors of Aโค fibrillogenesis are currently sought as potential future therapeutics for AD and related disorders. In the present study, the
