Abstract
The present invention relates to antibodies and binding fragments thereof that bind the β-sheet secondary structure of a pathological monomeric or oligomeric non-fibrillar proteins without binding to the non-toxic, non-pathological forms of these proteins or peptides These antibodies and binding fragments thereof are suitable for the diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of protein conformational disorders including all amyloid diseases.
