Systemic amyloidosis comprises an uncommon group of disorders caused by the
extracellular deposition of misfolded proteins in various organs. Cardiac amyloid deposition …

The amyloidoses are a family of diseases in which misfolded precursor proteins aggregate
to form amyloid and deposit in body tissues. A very serious yet underrecognized form of this …

Cardiac amyloidosis is an under-recognized and potentially fatal cause of heart failure and
other cardiovascular manifestations. It is caused by deposition of misfolded precursor …

Cardiac amyloidosis (CA), once thought to be a rare disease, is increasingly recognized due
to enhanced clinical awareness and better diagnostic imaging. CA is becoming of …

Cardiac amyloidosis in the United States is most often due to myocardial infiltration by
immunoglobulin protein, such as in AL amyloidosis, or by the protein transthyretin, such as …

Cardiac amyloidosis is characterized by clinically significant extracellular amyloid infiltration
of the heart that is usually, but not always, associated with the involvement of other organs …

Cardiac amyloidosis, the primary determinant of prognosis in systemic amyloidoses, is
characterized by infiltration of myocardium by amyloid protein resulting in cardiomyopathy …

Amyloidosis is an increasingly recognized cause of heart disease, caused by the deposition
of misfolded protein within the heart. These proteins may deposit systemically and include …

Cardiac amyloidosis occurs because of abnormal protein (amyloid) deposition in the cardiac
tissue. Even with advanced diagnostic techniques and treatments, the prognosis of …

Amyloidosis represents a group of diseases in which proteins undergo misfolding to form
insoluble fibrils with subsequent tissue deposition. While almost all deposited amyloid fibers …
