Abstract Aims Electron microscopy reveals microstructural alterations in cardiomyocyte nuclei and myofilaments in non‐ischaemic cardiomyopathy (NICM), particularly in dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). Nevertheless, the correlation between such observations and clinical outcomes, including prognosis and left ventricular reverse remodelling (LVRR), remains ...

Predicting Structural Consequences of Antibody Light Chain N-Glycosylation in AL Amyloidosis
Background/Objectives: Antibody light chains form amyloid fibrils that lead to progressive tissue damage in amyloid light chain (AL) amyloidosis. The properties of each patient’s unique light chain appear to determine its propensity to form amyloid.

Cardiac amyloidosis is a disease characterised by the accumulation of amyloid protein in the heart tissue. There are several types of amyloidosis, but the most common types affecting the heart are ATTR amyloidosis (caused by transthyretin protein) and AL amyloidosis (caused by abnormal immunoglobulin light chains).

Abbreviations: TAVI, transcatheter aortic valve implantation; ATTR‐CM, transthyretin cardiac amyloidosis. We aimed to diagnose occult ATTR‐CM in patients with severe aortic stenosis undergoing TAVI using bone scintigraphy. We verified a diagnosis of ATTR‐CM in 8 of 171 (4.7 %) consecutive aortic stenosis patients who underwent TAVI.

Amyloidosis is a collective term for a heterogeneous group of disorders characterized by deposition of a fibrillar, proteinaceous material, amyloid, in various tissues and organs. Increasing knowledge about the different proteins that constitute the amyloid fibrils has made it possible to classify amyloidosis by the fibril protein, which appears more ...
