OBJECTIVE Haemodialysis is associated with the deposition of beta(2) microglobulin in musculoskeletal structures, leading to the syndrome of dialysis related amyloidosis and impairment of hand function. This study aimed at assessing hand function using the Sollerman test in a cross section of patients undergoing haemodialysis. METHODS Recipients of haemodialysis underwent the Sollerman test o...
Dialysis-related amyloidosis is a major complication in long-term hemodialysis patients. In dialysis-related amyloidosis, β2-microglobulin (β2-m) amyloid fibrils deposit in the osteoarticular tissue, leading to carpal tunnel syndrome and destructive arthropathy with cystic bone lesions, but the mechanism by which these amyloid fibrils destruct bone and joint tissue is not fully understood. In t...
Several members of a family died from renal failure as a result of systemic amyloidosis. Extensive studies to detect previously documented gene mutations associated with amyloidosis failed to identify a causative factor. In search of the genetic basis for this syndrome, amyloid fibrils were isolated from renal tissue of a member of the kin who died while on renal dialysis. Amino acid sequencing...
The pattern of amyloid deposits in the femoral head is described in four cases, two of which had deposits of amyloid related to age and two of which had generalised systemic amyloidosis (one of primary amyloidosis, one of multiple myeloma). The deposition of amyloid in the articular cartilage of the femoral head was similar in all four cases. Heavy deposits of synovial amyloid were identified i...
Dialysis-related amyloidosis is characterized by the deposition of insoluble fibrils of beta(2)-microglobulin (beta(2)-m) in the musculoskeletal system. Atomic force microscopy inspection of ex vivo amyloid material reveals the presence of bundles of fibrils often associated to collagen fibrils. Aggregation experiments were undertaken in vitro with the aim of reproducing the physiopathological ...
BACKGROUND Light chain (AL) amyloidosis is a rare disease characterized by misfolded amyloid protein deposits in tissues and vital organs, and little is known about the burden of AL amyloidosis on health-related quality of life. This study aimed to quantify the burden of AL amyloidosis in terms of health-related quality of life in a diverse, community-based sample of AL amyloidosis patients. ...
BACKGROUND Systemic amyloidoses include immunoglobulin light chain (AL) amyloidosis, serum amyloid (AA)-related amyloidosis and senile systemic amyloidosis (SSA). AL amyloidosis is associated with myeloma, and we showed recently that transthyretin-related hereditary amyloidosis was related to non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). In SSA, amyloids constitute wild-type transthyretin. We wanted to analyze c...
Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) is a widespread disease and its renal involvement, relatively common, is clinically significant because worsens course and mortality of the primary disease. There is still no agreement on the prevalence of renal disorders in RA: data analysis originates from different sources, as death certificates, autopsies, clinical and laboratory findings and kidney biopsies, each ...
