Localized Immunoglobulin Light-Chain Amyloidosis of the Ulnar Nerve [PDF]

Case Reports in Neurology, 2021
Amyloidosis is a disorder caused by extracellular tissue deposition of insoluble fibrils. Amyloidosis can be divided into systemic or localized disease. Primary systemic amyloidosis is a multisystem disease caused by the deposition of amyloid in various ...

Modeling immunoglobulin light chain amyloidosis in Caenorhabditis elegans [PDF]

Disease Models & Mechanisms
Abstract Cardiomyopathy determines the prognosis of patients with immunoglobulin light chain (AL) amyloidosis, a rare systemic disease caused by the misfolding and deposition of monoclonal light chains (LCs). The reasons underlining their cardiac tropism remain unknown, and an animal model recapitulating the main ...

Systemic immunoglobulin light chain amyloidosis [PDF]

Nature Reviews Disease Primers, 2018
Systemic immunoglobulin light chain amyloidosis is a protein misfolding disease caused by the conversion of immunoglobulin light chains from their soluble functional states into highly organized amyloid fibrillar aggregates that lead to organ dysfunction.

Daratumumab-Based Treatment for Immunoglobulin Light-Chain Amyloidosis [PDF]

New England Journal of Medicine, 2021
Systemic immunoglobulin light-chain (AL) amyloidosis is characterized by deposition of amyloid fibrils of light chains produced by clonal CD38+ plasma cells. Daratumumab, a human CD38-targeting antibody, may improve outcomes for this disease.We randomly assigned patients with newly diagnosed AL amyloidosis to receive six cycles of bortezomib ...

Hereditary systemic immunoglobulin light-chain amyloidosis [PDF]

Blood, 2015
Key PointsProtein and DNA analyses reveal that mutation in the immunoglobulin κ light-chain constant region gene may cause hereditary amyloidosis. Sequencing of immunoglobulin light-chain constant region genes is indicated for patients with AL amyloidosis and no evidence of a plasma cell dyscrasia.
