First report of CART treatment in AL amyloidosis and relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma
Multiple myeloma (MM) remains incurable despite the number of novel therapies that have become available in recent years. Occasionally, a patient with MM will develop an amyloid light-chain (AL) amyloidosis with organ dysfunction.

Cryo-EM reveals structural breaks in a patient-derived amyloid fibril from systemic AL amyloidosis
Systemic AL amyloidosis is a debilitating and potentially fatal disease that arises from the misfolding and fibrillation of immunoglobulin light chains (LCs).

High-resolution crystal structure of gelsolin domain 2 in complex with the physiological calcium ion [PDF]
The second domain of gelsolin (G2) hosts mutations responsible for a hereditary form of amyloidosis. The active form of gelsolin is Ca2+-bound; it is also a dynamic protein, hence structural biologists often rely on the study of the isolated G2.

Daratumumab for the treatment of AL amyloidosis [PDF]
Autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) has been used as treatment for immunoglobulin light-chain (AL) amyloidosis for over two decades with improving outcomes; however, the majority of patients are not candidates for this therapy at diagnosis. Novel agents such as immunomodulatory drugs, proteasome inhibitors, and immunotherapy with monoclonal ...

Dissection of the amyloid formation pathway in AL amyloidosis
In antibody light chain (AL) amyloidosis, overproduced light chain (LC) fragments accumulate as fibrils in organs and tissues of patients. In vitro, AL fibril formation is a slow process, characterized by a pronounced lag phase.

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

Nuclear Imaging for the Diagnosis of Cardiac Amyloidosis in 2021
Cardiac amyloidosis is caused by the deposition of misfolded protein fibrils into the extracellular space of the heart. The diagnosis of cardiac amyloidosis remains challenging because of the heterogeneous manifestations of the disease.
