Clinical Practice Guideline for Evaluation and Management of Peripheral Nervous System Manifestations in Sjögren's Disease

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Sjögren's disease is an autoimmune disorder that can impact multiple organ systems, including the peripheral nervous system (PNS). PNS manifestations, which can exist concurrently, include mononeuropathies, polyneuropathies, and autonomic nervous system neuropathies.

Post‐Translational Isoaspartate Promotes Amyloid Formation in β2‐Microglobulin

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Chemical synthesis of five β2‐microglobulin (β2m) variants reveals the structural impact of Asn deamidation. By introducing Asp or isoAsp at susceptible Asn‐Gly sequences, we demonstrate that isoAsp17 formation specifically accelerates amyloid fibril formation, highlighting its potential contribution to dialysis‐related amyloidosis.

Dissecting the Molecular Features of Systemic Light Chain (AL) Amyloidosis: Contributions from Proteomics

open access: yesMedicina, 2021
Amyloidoses are characterized by aggregation of proteins into highly ordered amyloid fibrils, which deposit in the extracellular space of tissues, leading to organ dysfunction.

Resting State fMRI Reveals Diminished Functional Connectivity in a Mouse Model of Amyloidosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Introduction: Functional connectivity (FC) studies have gained immense popularity in the evaluation of several neurological disorders, such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD). AD is a complex disorder, characterised by several pathological features. The problem

Multiorgan Dysfunction and Associated Prognosis in Transthyretin Cardiac Amyloidosis

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease
Background Transthyretin cardiac amyloidosis (ATTR‐CA) is a progressive and ultimately fatal cardiomyopathy. Biomarkers reflecting multiorgan dysfunction are of increasing importance in patients with heart failure; however, their significance in ATTR‐CA ...

QBP1 Peptide as a Potential Anti‐Amyloidogenic Therapy for Type 2 Diabetes: An In Vitro Study

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The anti‐amyloidogenic peptide QBP1 effectively halts human islet amyloid polypeptide (hIAPP) aggregation, preventing the formation of toxic β‐structured intermediates. Through a combination of biophysical assays, molecular dynamics, and cell‐based studies, QBP1 is shown to preserve β‐cell viability and metabolic homeostasis, positioning it as a ...

Cardiac transplantation in transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy: Outcomes from three decades of tertiary center experience

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2023
AimsTransthyretin cardiac amyloidosis (ATTR-CM) is a progressive and fatal cardiomyopathy. Treatment options in patients with advanced ATTR-CM are limited to cardiac transplantation (CT).

Primary Localized Amyloidosis of the Bladder Mimicking Neoplasia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
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.

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

open access: yes, 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 ...

Carboranyl‐Curcuminoids for the Neutron Capture‐Based Treatment of Amyloid Aggregates in Alzheimer's Disease

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The 10B‐enriched monocarbonyl analog of curcumin (BMAC) 10B‐9 enables site‐specific Boron Neutron Capture Therapy (BNCT) on amyloid‐β (Aβ) fibrils. Neutron irradiation induces histidine oxidation and fibril destabilization, as revealed by 1H‐NMR and FESEM analyses.
