Protein aggregation and aggregate toxicity: new insights into protein folding, misfolding diseases and biological evolution

TL;DR: The 'new view' of these diseases suggests that other degenerative conditions could have similar underlying origins to those of the amyloidoses, and suggests some intriguing new factors that could be of great significance in the evolution of biological molecules and the mechanisms that regulate their behaviour.

Beyond water activity: recent advances based on an alternative approach to the assessment of food quality and safety

TL;DR: The effects of water, as a near-universal solvent and plasticizer, on the behavior of polymeric (as well as oligomeric and monomeric) food materials and systems, are reviewed, with emphasis on the impact of water content (in terms of increasing system mobility and eventual water "availability") on food quality, safety, stability, and technological performance.

Physical Stability of Proteins in Aqueous Solution: Mechanism and Driving Forces in Nonnative Protein Aggregation

TL;DR: The purpose of the current review is to provide a fundamental understanding of the mechanisms by which proteins aggregate and by which varying solution conditions, such as temperature, pH, salt type, salt concentration, cosolutes, preservatives, and surfactants, affect this process.
