N2 - With the revelation of the close link between Alzheimer's disease (AD) and type II diabetes (T2D) and the possible assembly of multiple amyloid peptides therein, it is critical to understand and regulate the co-fibrillation pathway between related amyloid peptides.

Experimental results confirm that the β-sheet secondary structure of amyloid peptides would be disrupted under small static EF and accompanied by transforming fibril aggregates into amorphous particles in vitro.
