Amyloidosis is a complex disorder characterized by deposited insoluble fibrillar proteins
which misfold into β-pleated sheets. The pathogenesis of amyloidosis can vary but can be …

In systemic amyloidoses, misfolded proteins form amyloid fibrils that are deposited in various
tissues causing organ dysfunction. In systemic immunoglobulin light chain (AL) amyloidosis …

Amyloidosis is characterized by depositing insoluble fibrillar proteins that misfold into beta-
pleated sheets. This phenomenon occurs on a systemic or local level and may interfere with …

Introduction Amyloidosis is a rare disease in which malformed proteins are deposited in
tissues occurring mostly commonly in older age. These deposits can lead to severe organ …

Light chain (AL) amyloidosis is a potentially fatal disease of monoclonal plasma cells that
leads to accumulation of light chain amyloid fibrils, organ damage, and the manifestations of …

Inflammatory (AA) amyloidosis is a rare type of amyloidosis that follows serum amyloid A

The crosstalk between viral infections, amyloid formation and neurodegeneration has been
discussed with varying intensity since the last century. Several viral proteins are known to be …
