Proteomic Analysis for the Diagnosis of Fibrinogen Aα-chain Amyloidosis

open access: yesKidney International Reports, 2019
Introduction: Hereditary fibrinogen Aα-chain (AFib) amyloidosis is a relatively uncommon renal disease associated with a small number of pathogenic fibrinogen Aα (FibA) variants; wild-type FibA normally does not result in amyloid deposition.

Acute-phase proteins during inflammatory reaction by bacterial infection: Fish-model

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2019
Acute-phase protein (APPs) serum levels have been studied in many human diseases, and their components contribute to host defense during the evolution of infectious diseases by acting as part of the innate immune system.

Acute-phase protein synthesis: a key feature of innate immune functions of the liver

open access: yesBiological chemistry, 2021
The expression of acute-phase proteins (APP’s) maintains homeostasis and tissue repair, but also represents a central component of the organism’s defense strategy, especially in the context of innate immunity.

Genome-Wide Association Study Identifies Two Novel Regions at 11p15.5-p13 and 1p31 with Major Impact on Acute-Phase Serum Amyloid A [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Elevated levels of acute-phase serum amyloid A (A-SAA) cause amyloidosis and are a risk factor for atherosclerosis and its clinical complications, type 2 diabetes, as well as various malignancies.

Renal Amyloidosis Associated With 5 Novel Variants in the Fibrinogen A Alpha Chain Protein

open access: yesKidney International Reports, 2017
Fibrinogen A alpha chain amyloidosis is an autosomal dominant disease associated with mutations in the fibrinogen A alpha chain (FGA) gene, and it is the most common cause of hereditary renal amyloidosis in the UK.

The importance of acute-phase proteins as markers in cancers

open access: yesStudia Medyczne, 2021
Acute-phase proteins (APPs) form a group of heterogeneous proteins whose synthesis takes place in the liver. This involves mediators such as cytokines and constitutes a response to acute inflammations, bacterial infections, tumours, and autoimmune ...

Inhibition of the mechano-enzymatic amyloidogenesis of transthyretin: role of ligand affinity, binding cooperativity and occupancy of the inner channel

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Dissociation of the native transthyretin (TTR) tetramer is widely accepted as the critical step in TTR amyloid fibrillogenesis. It is modelled by exposure of the protein to non-physiological low pH in vitro and is inhibited by small molecule compounds ...

Acute phase proteins in sheep and goats – function, reference ranges and assessment methods: An overview [PDF]

open access: yesBulgarian Journal of Veterinary Medicine, 2018
Acute phase response (APR) is activated by disorders in systemic homeostasis. The main purpose of APR is to prevent further tissue damage by isolation and destruction of causative agent, removing the toxic products and providing conditions for tissue ...

Efficacy of bortezomib, cyclophosphamide and dexamethasone in treatment-naïve patients with high-risk cardiac AL amyloidosis (Mayo Clinic stage III)

open access: yesHaematologica, 2014
Bortezomib is an active agent in AL amyloidosis and responses to this drug in combination with cyclophosphamide and dexamethasone are both rapid and deep.
