Racemates often have lower solubility than enantiopure compounds, and mixing of enantiomers can enhance aggregation propensity of peptides. Amyloid β (Aβ) 42 is an aggregation-prone peptide, believed to play a key role in Alzheimer’s Disease. Soluble Aβ42 aggregation intermediates (oligomers) have emerged as particularly neurotoxic. We hypothesized that addition of mirror image (D-) Aβ42 should reduce the concentration of toxic oligomers formed by natural (L-) Aβ42. We synthesized L- and D-Aβ42 and found their equimolar mixing to lead to accelerated fibril formation. Confocal microscopy with fluorescently labeled analogs of the enantiomers showed their co-localization in racemic fibrils. Reflecting enhanced fibril formation propensity, racemic Aβ42 was less prone to form soluble oligomers. This resulted in protection of cells from toxicity of L-Aβ42 at concentrations ranging up to 50 µM. In summary, mixing of Aβ42 enantiomers induces accelerated formation of non-toxic fibrils. We synthesized both enantiomers of Aβ42 and found their mixing to induce drastic acceleration of fibrillization. When made from fluorescently labelled analogues, racemic fibrils showed high degree of co-localization of the enantiomers. The racemate showed a reduced propensity to yield oligomeric aggregation intermediates, which, remarkably, resulted in inhibition of toxicity of the natural L-Aβ42 enantiomer in the racemate.
