Exposing transthyretin amyloid to 1000 sub-nanosecond 2 MV/cm pulsed electric fields (PEFs) promotes both amyloid disassembly and amyloid-derived transthyretin disintegration. The process produced no change in pH, and the resulting temperature increase was less than 1 {degrees}C. We conclude that PEFs physical effects facilitate amyloid disassembly, rather than thermal or chemical effects, and provoke amyloid-derived transthyretin disintegration, the latter of which is reported here for the first time.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
