Here we demonstrate that 1-palmitoyl-2-(9'-oxononanoyl)-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (PoxnoPC), a zwitterionic oxidized phospholipid bearing an aldehyde moiety at the end of its truncated sn-2 acyl chain, accelerates amyloidogenesis of FtG(179-194) (i.e., the core amyloidogenic segment of residues 179-194 of FAF gelsolin) as revealed by thioflavin T (ThT) fluorescence and electron microscopy.

To clarify the mechanisms involved in amyloid formation in Finnish-type familial amyloidosis (FAF), we have tested the in vitro fibrillogenicity of synthetic wild-type and mutated gelsolin peptide analogs and studied the fragmentation patterns of gelsolin in the circulation of FAF patients with the Asn-187 or Tyr-187 gelsolin mutation.
