Uncovering the Mechanism of Aggregation of Human Transthyretin. [PDF]
The tetrameric thyroxine transport protein transthyretin (TTR) forms amyloid fibrils upon dissociation and monomer unfolding. The aggregation of transthyretin has been reported as the cause of the life-threatening transthyretin amyloidosis.

Incidence and clinical outcome of renal amyloidosis: A retrospective study
The kidneys are affected in almost all patients with amyloid A in secondary amyloidosis (AA) amyloidosis but less frequently in immunoglobulin light chains in primary systemic amyloidosis (AL) amyloidosis.

Supportive Care in AL Amyloidosis [PDF]
Immunoglobulin light-chain (AL) amyloidosis is a systemic disease characterized by the production and deposition of light chain-derived amyloid fibrils in different organs. Prompt treatment directed to the underlying plasma cell clone is crucial in order to achieve a rapid, deep and durable hematologic response.

Abstract Hepatocellular adenomas (HCAs) are benign liver tumors associated with bleeding or malignant transformation. Data on the indication for surgery are scarce. We analyzed indications and outcome of patients operated for HCAs < 50 mm compared to HCAs ≥ 50 mm. Changes in final postoperative diagnosis were assessed.

A case report of hereditary apolipoprotein A-I amyloidosis associated with a novel APOA1 mutation and variable phenotype [PDF]
Apolipoprotein A-I (apo A-I) amyloidosis is a non-AL, non-AA, and non-transthyretin type of amyloidosis associated with mutations in the APOA1 gene inherited in an autosomal dominant fashion. It is a form of systemic amyloidosis, but at presentation, can

A bibliometric analysis of light chain amyloidosis from 2005 to 2024: research trends and hot spots
BackgroundLight chain (AL) amyloidosis stands as the most prevalent subtype of systemic amyloidosis, encompassing a group of rare diseases. Here, we evaluated the scientific landscape of AL amyloidosis to investigate research trends and identify hotspots

Duodenal biopsy: an unexpected confirmatory test for a patient with al-amyloidosis
SSystemic AL- amyloidosis is a disorder of protein folding in which there is extra-cellular accumulation as β pleated fibrillar deposits of monoclonal immunoglobulin light chain fragments. AL- amyloidosis is a rare clinical entity.

Human central nervous system (CNS) ApoE isoforms are increased by age, differentially altered by amyloidosis, and relative amounts reversed in the CNS compared with plasma [PDF]
The risk of Alzheimer's disease (AD) is highly dependent on apolipoprotein-E (apoE) genotype. The reasons for apoE isoform-selective risk are uncertain; however, both the amounts and structure of human apoE isoforms have been hypothesized to lead to ...
