Collectively, our findings indicate that DHCP has a favorable toxicity profile and is a new TRAIL sensitizer that shows promise in the development of pectin-based pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals, and dietary agents aimed at combating human colon cancer.Polyphosphates (polyPs), chains of phosphate residues found in species across nature from bacteria to mammals, were recently reported to accelerate the amyloid fibril formation of many proteins. How polyPs facilitate this process, however, remains unknown. To gain insight into their mechanisms, we used various physicochemical approaches to examine the effects of polyPs of varying chain lengths on ultrasonication-dependent α-synuclein (α-syn) amyloid formation. Although orthophosphate and diphosphate exhibited a single optimal concentration of amyloid formation, triphosphate and longer-chain phosphates exhibited two optima, with the second at a concentration lower than that of orthophosphate or diphosphate. The second optimum decreased markedly polyP length increased. This suggested that although the optima at lower polyP concentrations were caused by interactions between negatively charged phosphate groups and the positive charges of α-syn, the optima at higher polyP concentrations were caused by the Hofmeister salting-out effects of phosphate groups, where the effects do not depend on the net charge. NMR titration experiments of α-syn with tetraphosphate combined with principal component analysis revealed that, at low tetraphosphate concentrations, negatively charged tetraphosphates interacted with positively charged "KTK" segments in four KTKEGV repeats located at the N-terminal region. At high concentrations, hydrated tetraphosphates affected the surface-exposed hydrophilic groups of compact α-syn. Taken together, our results suggest that long-chain polyPs consist
