Case report: Rapid development of amyloid A amyloidosis in temporal arteritis with SAA1.3 allele; An unusual case of intestinal amyloidosis secondary to temporal arteritis

Frontiers in Immunology, 2023
Temporal arteritis (TA) is a large-vessel vasculitis mostly seen in older patients. Amyloid A (AA) amyloidosis secondary to a chronic inflammation induces multiple organ dysfunctions, including a dysfunction of the gastrointestinal tract.

HGA Triggers SAA Aggregation and Accelerates Fibril Formation in the C20/A4 Alkaptonuria Cell Model

Cells
Alkaptonuria (AKU) is a rare autosomal recessive metabolic disorder caused by mutations in the homogentisate 1,2-dioxygenase (HGD) gene, leading to the accumulation of homogentisic acid (HGA), causing severe inflammatory conditions.
