A foldamer-dendrimer conjugate neutralizes synaptotoxic β-amyloid oligomers.
Lívia Fülöp,István M. Mándity,Gábor Juhász,Viktor Szegedi,Anasztázia Hetényi,Edit Wéber,Zsolt Bozsó,Dóra Simon,Mária Benkő,Zoltán Király,Tamás A. Martinek +10 more
TL;DR: The combination of the foldamer methodology, the fragment-based approach and the multivalent design offers a pathway to unnatural protein mimetics that are capable of specific molecular recognition, and has already resulted in an inhibitor for an extremely difficult target.
Histidine-rich branched peptides as Cu(II) and Zn(II) chelators with potential therapeutic application in Alzheimer's disease.
Andrea Lakatos,Béla Gyurcsik,Nóra Veronika Nagy,Zita Csendes,Edit Wéber,Lívia Fülöp,Tamás Kiss +6 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that branched peptides containing potential metal-binding sites may be suitable metal chelators for reducing the risk of amyloid plaque formation in Alzheimer's disease.

In vitro anti-diabetic activity and chemical characterization of an apolar fraction of Morus alba leaf water extract.
Attila Hunyadi,Katalin Veres,Balázs Dankó,Zoltán Kele,Edit Wéber,Anasztázia Hetényi,István Zupkó,Tusty-Jiuan Hsieh +7 more
TL;DR: The investigation of the dichloromethane‐soluble fraction obtained in a 0.24% m/m yield from the hot water extract of mulberry leaves found a significant, dose‐dependent activity by means of the 24‐h glucose consumption of fully differentiated adipocytes both in the absence and presence of insulin.
