Amyloidosis is a disorder caused by misfolding of autologous protein and its extracellular
deposition as fibrils, resulting in vital organ dysfunction and eventually death. Pulmonary …

Amyloidosis is a disorder of protein folding in which normally soluble plasma proteins
aggregate in an abnormal fibrillar form causing progressive disruption to tissue structure and …

Objective/Hypothesis To update the current understanding of localized laryngeal
amyloidosis by analyzing the NHS National Amyloidosis Database and to further clarify the …

Background: Tracheobronchial amyloidosis is a rare form of primary amyloidosis. There
have been no regimens for treatment of this disease that have proven to be effective. There …

We have previously reported that low doses of external beam ionizing irradiation reduced
amyloid-ß (Aß) plaques and improved cognition in APP/PS1 mice. In this study we …

Background and purpose To investigate if cranial X-irradiation reduces amyloid-β (Aβ)
plaques and influences cognitive function in a transgenic mouse model of AD. Methods and …

PURPOSE: To evaluate the efficacy of conformal external beam radiotherapy (RT) for local
control of progressive airway amyloidosis. METHODS AND MATERIALS: We conducted a …

Background. Localized amyloidosis of the larynx is a rare entity of unclear etiology. Surgical
debulking is the primary treatment modality but often is not curative. Methods and Results. A …

Amyloidosis is a spectrum of diseases characterized by abnormal extracellular accumulation
of proteinaceous material; its precise etiology still remains unclear. It may affect multiple …

Objective: To describe two patients with localized orbital amyloidosis and the response of
their condition to surgical debulking followed by external beam radiotherapy. Design …
