Epigallocatechin-3-gallate preferentially induces aggregation of amyloidogenic immunoglobulin light chains

Antibody light chain amyloidosis is a rare disease caused by fibril formation of secreted immunoglobulin light chains (LCs). The huge variety of antibody sequences puts a serious challenge to drug discovery. The green tea polyphenol epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) is known to interfere with fibril formation in general. Here we present solution- and solid-state NMR studies as well as MD simula...

(−)-Epigallocatechin-3-gallate induces secretion of anorexigenic gut hormones

The anorexigenic gut hormones, cholecystokinin (CCK), glucagon-like peptide (GLP)-1 and peptide tyrosine-tyrosine (PYY), are released in response to food intake from the intestines. Dietary nutrients have been shown to stimulate these hormones. Some non-nutrients such as polyphenols show anorexigenic effects on humans. In the present study, we examined whether dietary polyphenols can stimulate ...

Shark Immunoglobulin Light Chains

The humoral adaptive immune system of sharks is partly based on the same H2L2 heterodimeric antibody structure seen in all jawed vertebrates (reviewed in Flajnik 2002). The constituent vertebrate immunoglobulin (Ig) heavy (H) and light (L) chains provide obligate defense against pathogens and their toxins via neutralization, opsonization, and activation of the classical pathway of the complemen...

Unfolded protein response activation reduces secretion and extracellular aggregation of amyloidogenic immunoglobulin light chain.

Light-chain amyloidosis (AL) is a degenerative disease characterized by the extracellular aggregation of a destabilized amyloidogenic Ig light chain (LC) secreted from a clonally expanded plasma cell. Current treatments for AL revolve around ablating the cancer plasma cell population using chemotherapy regimens. Unfortunately, this approach is limited to the ∼ 70% of patients who do not exhibit...
