Renal Amyloidosis Associated With 5 Novel Variants in the Fibrinogen A Alpha Chain Protein

Kidney 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.

Electromechanical dissociation of left atrium in patients with Cardiac Amyloidosis by Magnetic Resonance: Prognostic and clinical correlates

International Journal of Cardiology: Heart & Vasculature, 2020
Objectives: Left atrial (LA) function is an important marker of hemodynamic status in cardiac amyloidosis (CA), and its characterization may provide relevant prognostic information.

Comparative Outcomes of a Transthyretin Amyloid Cardiomyopathy Cohort Versus Patients With Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction Enrolled in the TOPCAT Trial

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2023
Background Transthyretin cardiac amyloidosis (ATTR‐CM), found in 6% to 15% of cohorts with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction, has long been considered a rare disease with poor prognosis.

Hereditary amyloidosis [PDF]

Arthritis & Rheumatism, 1970
AbstractA review of hereditary amyloidoses is provided by papers from a 1969 international symposium on primary amyloidosis. These discussions allow comparison of the amyloid neuropathy with onset in the lower extremities (Portuguese‐Japanese families), the neuropathy with onset in the upper extremities (Indiana‐Maryland families), the neuropathy and ...

Systemic amyloidosis in England: an epidemiological study. [PDF]

, 2013
Epidemiological studies of systemic amyloidosis are scarce and the burden of disease in England has not previously been estimated. In 1999, the National Health Service commissioned the National Amyloidosis Centre (NAC) to provide a national clinical ...

Localised Mass-forming Amyloidosis of the Genitourinary Tract Mimics Urothelial Carcinoma: Two Cases of Mistaken Identity

, 2021
Amyloidosis of the lower genitourinary tract is an extremely rare condition and often mimics urothelial malignancy. In this paper, we report two cases of ureteral and urethral amyloidosis that initially presented as urothelial carcinoma and were ...

Microbiome−host proteostasis crosstalk—An emerging perspective on mechanisms and interventions toward healthy longevity

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Proteostasis and the gut microbiota play a key role in shaping host physiology. Microbiota‐derived metabolites, vitamins, and RNA modulate host proteostasis. Findings from model systems, including C. elegans, indicate microbes can either stabilize or disrupt host proteostasis.

Engineering peptides into antibodies—opportunities and strategies for therapeutic innovation

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Peptides and antibodies occupy complementary therapeutic niches. Peptides recognize difficult targets in a compact format, while antibodies add specificity, long half‐life, and effector functions. This review examines strategies that merge both modalities—peptide grafting into loops, terminal and Fc fusions, and bioconjugation—highlighting how ...
