Alterations of the gut microbiota in patients with immunoglobulin light chain amyloidosis
BackgroundEmerging evidence revealed that gut microbial dysbiosis is implicated in the development of plasma cell dyscrasias and amyloid deposition diseases, but no data are available on the relationship between gut microbiota and immunoglobulin light ...

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 ...

Diagnostic sensitivity of abdominal fat aspiration in cardiac amyloidosis [PDF]
Aims: Congo red staining of an endomyocardial biopsy is the diagnostic gold-standard in suspected cardiac amyloidosis (CA), but the procedure is associated with the risk, albeit small, of serious complications, and delay in diagnosis due to the ...

AL amyloidosis: untangling new therapies
Abstract Systemic light chain (AL) amyloidosis is a protein misfolding disorder characterized by the deposition of abnormal immunoglobulin light chains in fibrillary aggregates, resulting in end-organ damage. Several unique challenges face treating physicians, including delayed diagnosis, advanced vital organ involvement, and morbidity ...
