CD38 as Immunotherapeutic Target in Light Chain Amyloidosis and Multiple Myeloma—Association With Molecular Entities, Risk, Survival, and Mechanisms of Upfront Resistance [PDF]
Monoclonal antibodies against the cell surface antigen CD38, e.g., isatuximab, daratumumab, or Mor202, have entered the therapeutic armamentarium in multiple myeloma due to single agent overall response rates of 29 vs. 36 vs.

Secretion of transthyretin: molecular mechanisms dependent on the endoplasmic reticulum [PDF]
Hereditary transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTRv) results from genetic mutations that destabilize transthyretin (TTR), leading to the formation of extracellular aggregates and amyloid fibrils.

Application of Radionuclide Myocardial Imaging in the Diagnosis and Treatment of Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction [PDF]
Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) represents a major phenotype of heart failure and accounts for over 50% of clinical cases. The complex pathophysiological mechanism involved in HFpEF promotes diagnostic difficulties and limited ...

β2-Microglobulin amyloid fibril-induced membrane disruption is enhanced by endosomal lipids and acidic pH. [PDF]
Although the molecular mechanisms underlying the pathology of amyloidoses are not well understood, the interaction between amyloid proteins and cell membranes is thought to play a role in several amyloid diseases. Amyloid fibrils of β2-microglobulin (β2m)

Antibodies gone bad – the molecular mechanism of light chain amyloidosis [PDF]
Light chain amyloidosis (AL) is a systemic disease in which abnormally proliferating plasma cells secrete large amounts of mutated antibody light chains (LCs) that eventually form fibrils. The fibrils are deposited in various organs, most often in the heart and kidney, and impair their function. The prognosis for patients diagnosed with AL is generally

Molecular Mechanisms of Cardiac Amyloidosis
Cardiac involvement has a profound effect on the prognosis of patients with systemic amyloidosis. Therapeutic methods for suppressing the production of causative proteins have been developed for ATTR amyloidosis and AL amyloidosis, which show cardiac involvement, and the prognosis has been improved.
