Physics of Protein Aggregation in Normal and Accelerated Brain Aging
Soluble monomeric proteins precipitate via nucleation into insoluble amyloids in response to age-related exposures (e.g., microbes, nanoparticles). Persistent soluble-to-insoluble phase transition de....

How does physics inform neurodegeneration? Supersaturation lowers the nucleation barrier for the precipitation of monomeric proteins into their pathological state. In normal aging, replacement matches loss; in accelerated aging, it does not. (1/4)

“Alzheimer’s is caused by pathology decades before symptoms.” If so, removing pathology in preclinical AD should prevent decline. It didn't—most preclinical AD trials (4/6) worsened outcomes in treated vs placebo. Pathology ≠ disease.
