Misdiagnosis of hereditary amyloidosis as AL (Primary) amyloidosis [PDF]
Background: Hereditary, autosomal dominant amyloidosis, caused by mutations in the genes encoding transthyretin, fibrinogen A -chain, lysozyme, or apolipoprotein A-I, is thought to be extremely rare and is not routinely included in the differential ...

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
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 ...

Neurodegeneration and neurogenesis in mouse models of aging and Alzheimer's disease [PDF]
As the proportion of senior citizens gradually increases, the behavioral changes that occur with normal aging and as a consequence of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) will afflict many of us in the future.

The VHL tumor suppressor at the crossroad of protein folding, aggregation, and cancer
Mutations, environmental stress, and chaperone dysfunction can destabilize pVHL, promoting its conversion from the native folded state into amyloid‐like assemblies. This transition may contribute to protein storage, cell dormancy, survival, and drug resistance.

Systemic Amyloidosis – Insights by Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance [PDF]
Systemic amyloidosis is the exemplar infiltrative, extracellular disease. Although it is a multi-organ disorder, cardiac involvement drives prognosis. Survival is worst in the AL amyloidosis subtype. It can affect any age and any race. There is no direct

Primary Localized Amyloidosis of the Bladder Mimicking Neoplasia [PDF]
A 63-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital with macroscopic hematuria in 2013. On computed tomography, the bladder wall thickness was 2 cm, suspicious for malignancy.

Predictive Ability of Plasma p‐tau217 for β‐Amyloid Status: A Prospective Multicenter Study
ABSTRACT Objective Plasma tau phosphorylated at threonine 217 (p‐tau217) measured with fully automated platforms has shown high accuracy for Alzheimer's disease (AD) diagnosis, but real‐world multicenter data remain limited. We aimed to validate the diagnostic performance of p‐tau217 for identifying AD pathology in a real‐world multicenter cohort ...
