β-Amyloid (1-38) is a peptide fragment derived from the amyloid precursor protein (APP) and is primarily associated with neurodegenerative diseases, particularly Alzheimer's disease. This specific peptide consists of 38 amino acids and is known for its role in the formation of amyloid plaques in the brain, which are characteristic of Alzheimer's pathology. The mouse and rat variants indicate that this peptide is used in research involving these animal models to study the mechanisms of amyloid aggregation and its effects on neuronal health. β-Amyloid (1-38) can exhibit neurotoxic properties, influencing synaptic function and promoting neuroinflammation. Its CAS number, 186359-66-0, is a unique identifier that facilitates the identification and study of this compound in scientific literature and databases. Researchers often utilize this peptide to explore therapeutic interventions aimed at mitigating the effects of amyloid accumulation and to better understand the underlying biochemical pathways involved in neurodegeneration.
