Light Chain Stabilization: A Therapeutic Approach to Ameliorate AL Amyloidosis

Hemato, 2021
Non-native immunoglobulin light chain conformations, including aggregates, appear to cause light chain amyloidosis pathology. Despite significant progress in pharmacological eradication of the neoplastic plasma cells that secrete these light chains, in ...

Virtual Screening for Promising Kinetic Stabilizers of Light Chains in Immunoglobulin Light Chain Amyloidosis Through Drug Repurposing [PDF]

, 2023
In immunoglobulin light chain amyloidosis, unstable immunoglobulin light chains aggregate as amyloid fibrils in organs, leading to organ failure and death in more than 50% of untreated patients. Research by Morgan et al. (Morgan, G. J. et.

Strong positive light chain immunostaining in a patient with transthyretin amyloidosis

Hematology, 2023
The two most common systemic amyloidosis types are immunoglobulin light chain (AL) and amyloid transthyretin (ATTR) amyloidosis, in which the precursor proteins responsible for amyloidosis are light chain and transthyretin, respectively.

Senile Systemic Amyloidosis: Clinical Features at Presentation and Outcome [PDF]

, 2013
Background Cardiac amyloidosis is a fatal disease whose prognosis and treatment rely on identification of the amyloid type. In our aging population transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTRwt) is common and must be differentiated from other amyloid types.

AL amyloidosis with non-amyloid forming monoclonal immunoglobulin deposition; a case mimicking AHL amyloidosis

BMC Nephrology, 2018
Background Immunoglobulin heavy-and-light-chain amyloidosis (AHL amyloidosis) is a newly established disease entity where both the immunoglobulin heavy-chain and light-chain compose amyloid fibrils. The immunoglobulins responsible for the amyloid fibrils

Biomarkers in Immunoglobulin Light Chain Amyloidosis

Klinicka Onkologie, 2017
Immunoglobulin light chain amyloidosis (AL amyloidosis - ALA) is a monoclonal gammopathy characterized by presence of aberrant plasma cells producing amyloidogenic immunoglobulin light chains. This leads to formation of amyloid fibrils in various organs and tissues, mainly in heart and kidney, and causes their dysfunction.
