A prospective study of nutritional status in immunoglobulin light chain amyloidosis
Weight loss is common in systemic immunoglobulin light chain amyloidosis but there are limited data on the impact of nutritional status on outcome.

Serum amyloid A primes microglia for ATP-dependent interleukin-1\u3b2 release [PDF]
Acute-phase response is a systemic reaction to environmental/inflammatory insults and involves production of acute-phase proteins, including serum amyloid A (SAA).

Analysis of Cardiac Amyloidosis Progression Using Model-Based Markers
Deposition of amyloid in the heart can lead to cardiac dilation and impair its pumping ability. This ultimately leads to heart failure with worsening symptoms of breathlessness and fatigue due to the progressive loss of elasticity of the myocardium ...

Early post parturient changes in milk acute phase proteins [PDF]
The periparturient period is one of the most critical periods in the productive life of a dairy cow, and is the period when dairy cows are most susceptible to developing new intramammary infections (IMI) leading to mastitis.

Clinical profile and treatment outcome of older (>75 years) patients with systemic AL amyloidosis
Systemic AL amyloidosis, a disease with improving outcomes using novel therapies, is increasingly recognized in the elderly but treatment and outcomes have not been systematically studied in this group of patients in whom comorbidities and frailty may ...

Relationship between haptoglobin and serum amyloid A in milk and milk quality [PDF]
The objective of this study was to evaluate relationships between the presence in milk of the major bovine acute phase proteins, haptoglobin (Hp) and serum amyloid A (SAA), and milk quality parameters.

Dependence of protein-induced lipid bilayer deformations on protein shape [PDF]
Membrane proteins typically deform the surrounding lipid bilayer membrane, which can play an important role in the function, regulation, and organization of membrane proteins. Membrane elasticity theory provides a beautiful description of protein-induced lipid bilayer deformations, in which all physical parameters can be directly determined from ...

C. elegans feed yolk to their young in a form of primitive lactation
It is unclear why C. elegans continues to produce large quantities of yolk after reproduction. Here the authors show that post-reproductive C. elegans mothers vent yolk which supports their offspring’s growth, serving as a form of primitive lactation.
