The roles of functional bacterial amyloids in neurological physiology and pathophysiology: Pros and cons for neurodegeneration.

Bacterial biofilms, which are complex communities of microorganisms encapsulated in a self-produced extracellular matrix, play critical roles in various diseases. Recent research has underscored the dualistic nature of amyloids, structural proteins within these biofilms, in human health, particularly highlighting the significant role in neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's (AD) and Parkinson's disease (PD). These amyloids modulate the immune response by inducing the production of interleukin-10 (IL-10), which plays a role in anti-inflammatory processes.
