    Detection of amyloidogenic and non‐amyloidogenic proteins using the Amytracker assay. (A) Viability and amytracker fluorescence analysis of wild <t>type</t> <t>SH‐SY5Y</t> cells treated with increasing concentrations of Aβ42, hIAPP, and Aβ16 peptides (5, 15, and 30 μM) of synthetic. Aβ42 decreased cell viability by 9%, 20% (*** p < 0.0001), and 65% (*** p < 0.0001) at doses of 5, 15, and 30 μM, respectively. In contrast, hIAPP caused a minor drop at 5 μM (~5%, not significant), but significantly decreased viability by ~35% (*** p < 0.0001) and ~50% (*** p < 0.0001) by 15 and 30 μM. Aβ16 demonstrated little impact on cell viability (≤ 5% reduction) at all tested dosages and did not cause substantial toxicity. (B‐D) Fluorescence study using amytracker showed increased fluorescence in Aβ42 treated cells, while hIAPP treated cells showed highest fluorescence and non‐amyloidogenic Aβ16 peptide exhibited the lowest fluorescence levels. Amytracker fluorescence increased modestly in a concentration‐dependent manner following exogenous synthetic Aβ42 and hIAPP exposure but not in Aβ16 treatment. Collectively, these findings validate the differential binding and activity profiles of Aβ42, hIAPP, and Aβ16 in SH‐SY5Y cells. Quantified data in line graphs are reported as mean ± SD from n = 4 different experiments.

    Impact of the APP and P301L mutation on the neurite outgrowth capacity of SH-SY5Y cells The control condition corresponds to the native cells. The APP condition corresponds to the cells stably overexpressing the Amyloid Precursor Protein (APP). The P301L condition corresponds to the cells stably overexpressing the P301L-Tau mutation. The differentiated cells were treated with 50 ng/mL of BDNF for 48h. (A) Cells were stained for ß3 tubulin (red) and DAPI (blue). All images were captured 48h post-treatment at 20× magnification on the Agilent BioTek Cytation 5 instrument. Image analysis was performed with the Gen5 software Neurite Outgrowth module where the soma mask overlay is displayed in blue and the neurite mask overlay in yellow.

    Detection of amyloidogenic and non‐amyloidogenic proteins using the Amytracker assay. (A) Viability and amytracker fluorescence analysis of wild type SH‐SY5Y cells treated with increasing concentrations of Aβ42, hIAPP, and Aβ16 peptides (5, 15, and 30 μM) of synthetic. Aβ42 decreased cell viability by 9%, 20% (*** p < 0.0001), and 65% (*** p < 0.0001) at doses of 5, 15, and 30 μM, respectively. In contrast, hIAPP caused a minor drop at 5 μM (~5%, not significant), but significantly decreased viability by ~35% (*** p < 0.0001) and ~50% (*** p < 0.0001) by 15 and 30 μM. Aβ16 demonstrated little impact on cell viability (≤ 5% reduction) at all tested dosages and did not cause substantial toxicity. (B‐D) Fluorescence study using amytracker showed increased fluorescence in Aβ42 treated cells, while hIAPP treated cells showed highest fluorescence and non‐amyloidogenic Aβ16 peptide exhibited the lowest fluorescence levels. Amytracker fluorescence increased modestly in a concentration‐dependent manner following exogenous synthetic Aβ42 and hIAPP exposure but not in Aβ16 treatment. Collectively, these findings validate the differential binding and activity profiles of Aβ42, hIAPP, and Aβ16 in SH‐SY5Y cells. Quantified data in line graphs are reported as mean ± SD from n = 4 different experiments.
