In vivo modulation of morphogenetic movements in Drosophila embryos with femtosecond laser pulses.

abstract：:Amyloid beta-protein (Abeta) is linked to neuronal injury and death in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Of particular relevance for elucidating the role of Abeta in AD is new evidence that oligomeric forms of Abeta are potent neurotoxins that play a major role in neurodegeneration and the strong association of the 42-residue...
