Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the deposition of
extracellular amyloid-beta peptide (Aβ) and intracellular neurofibrillar tangles, associated …

Amyloids result from the aggregation of a set of diverse proteins, due to either specific
mutations or promoting intra-or extra-cellular conditions. Structurally, they are rich in …

A given cell makes exchanges with its neighbors through a variety of means ranging from
diffusible factors to vesicles. Cells use also tunneling nanotubes (TNTs), filamentous-actin …
