Outcomes of renal transplantation in patients with AL amyloidosis: an international collaboration through The International Kidney and Monoclonal Gammopathy Research Group

open access: yesBlood Cancer Journal, 2022
Effective systemic therapies suppress toxic light chain production leading to an increased proportion of patients with light chain (AL) amyloidosis who survive longer albeit with end-stage renal disease.

Amyloidosis [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical Biochemistry: International Journal of Laboratory Medicine, 2012
The term amyloid describes the deposition in the extracellular space of certain proteins in a highly characteristic, insoluble fibrillar form. Amyloidosis describes the various clinical syndromes that occur as a result of damage by amyloid deposits in tissues and organs throughout the body.

Clinical Amyloid Typing by Proteomics: Performance Evaluation and Data Sharing between Two Centres

open access: yesMolecules, 2021
Amyloidosis is a relatively rare human disease caused by the deposition of abnormal protein fibres in the extracellular space of various tissues, impairing their normal function. Proteomic analysis of patients’ biopsies, developed by Dogan and colleagues

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.

A nationwide assessment of hepatocellular adenoma resection: Indications and pathological discordance

open access: yesHepatology Communications, EarlyView., 2022
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.

Marked progress in AL amyloidosis survival: a 40-year longitudinal natural history study

open access: yesBlood Cancer Journal, 2021
The recent decades have ushered in considerable advancements in the diagnosis and treatment of systemic light chain (AL) amyloidosis. As disease outcomes improve, AL amyloidosis-unrelated factors may impact mortality. In this study, we evaluated survival

Amyloidosis

open access: yesBlood Reviews, 1988
Amyloidosis is a disorder of protein folding in which normally soluble proteins are deposited in the interstitial space as insoluble and remarkably stable fibrils that progressively disrupt tissue structure and function of organs throughout the body.

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.
