A common beta-sheet architecture underlies in vitro and in vivo beta(2)-microglobulin amyloid fibrils [PDF]
Misfolding and aggregation of normally soluble proteins into amyloid fibrils and their deposition and accumulation underlies a variety of clinically significant diseases.

Skeletal Myopathy as the Initial Manifestation of Light Chain Multiple Myeloma
Monoclonal gammopathies due to plasma cell dyscrasias can cause various rare neuromuscular disorders. The peripheral nervous system is most commonly affected, while muscle diseases associated with monoclonal gammopathies are rare. Skeletal myopathy, as a

C-src Enriched Serum Microvesicles Are Generated in Malignant Plasma Cell Dyscrasia [PDF]
Plasma cell dyscrasias are immunosecretory disorders that can lead to hematological malignancies such as Multiple Myeloma (MM). MM accounts for 15% of all hematologic cancers, and those diagnosed with MM typically become severely ill and have a low life

Localized Lymph Node Light Chain Amyloidosis
Immunoglobulin-derived light chain amyloidosis can occasionally be associated with localized disease. We present a patient with localized lymph node light chain amyloidosis without an underlying monoclonal protein or lymphoproliferative disorder and ...

Duodenal biopsy: an unexpected confirmatory test for a patient with al-amyloidosis
SSystemic AL- amyloidosis is a disorder of protein folding in which there is extra-cellular accumulation as β pleated fibrillar deposits of monoclonal immunoglobulin light chain fragments. AL- amyloidosis is a rare clinical entity.

Producing amyloid fibrils in vitro: A tool for studying AL amyloidosis
Amyloid light-chain (AL) amyloidosis is the second most common form of systemic amyloidosis which is characterized by a high level of mortality and no effective treatment to remove fibril deposition.

Gastrointestinal Amyloidosis: Diagnostic Approach and Treatment [PDF]
Amyloidosis is a disease marked by deposition of misfolded proteins, known as amyloids, in the extracellular space, including gastrointestinal tract.
