Amyloid-? (1-40) (A?40) peptide is a 40-residue protein fragment of A?42 (Item No. 20574), a neurotoxic peptide found in amyloid plaques in postmortem cerebral cortex from patients with Alzheimer’s disease.{10614,42695} A?40 is more abundant, less neurotoxic, and does not form oligomers as easily as A?42.{33895,33896} A?40 inhibits in vitro fibrillization of A?42 in a concentration-dependent manner.{33898} It also inhibits A?42-induced cell death in cultured rat embryonic cortical neurons in a concentration-dependent manner. A?40 prevents A?42-induced increases in the number of GFAP-positive astrocytes in rat entorhinal cortex.
