Disease Injury Nutrition Poison ... Dilated cardiomyopathy Cardiac amyloidosis Definition: Cardiac amyloidosis is a disorder caused by deposits of an abnormal protein in the heart tissue, resulting in decreased heart function. Alternative Names: Amyloidosis - cardiac; Restrictive cardiomyopathy - amyloidosis; Primary cardiac amyloidosis - AL type; secondary cardiac amyloidosis - AA type; Stiff heart syndrome Causes, incidence, and risk factors: Amyloidosis refers to buildup of a fibril called amyloid in tissues anywhere in the body. Fibrils are proteins produced in excess that are deposited in different organs and slowly replace normal tissue. Different types of amyloidosis are caused by different types of proteins, such as "AL" and "AA." In cardiac amyloidosis there may be associated conduction disturbances (changes in the way the cardiac electrical impulse is transmitted through the heart). Cardiac amyloidosis usually occurs during primary amyloidosis (called AL type amyloidosis). Primary amyloidosis usually accompanies multiple myeloma, a blood disorder in which too much of a certain type of protein is produced. This excess protein is deposited in the heart and in other organs such as the kidney. Deteriorating kidney function also occurs. The heart is less frequently compromised by secondary amyloidosis (called AA type amyloidosis). Senile amyloidosis, however, is a type of secondary amyloidosis which does involve the heart. It is caused by overproduction of a protein different from both the AA and AL types. This particular protein is deposited mainly in the heart, but it can also infiltrate blood vessels. Senile cardiac amyloidosis is becoming more common as the average age of the population increases.

Facility Information DeWitt Comm Hosp Genesis Medical Ctr Illini Hospital Genesis Health Grp VNA Amyloidosis Definition Amyloidosis is a progressive, incurable, metabolic disease characterized by abnormal deposits of protein in one or more organs or body systems. Description Amyloid proteins are manufactured by malfunctioning bone marrow. Amyloidosis, which occurs when accumulated amyloid deposits impair normal body function, can cause organ failure or death . It is a rare disease, occurring in about eight of every 1,000,000 people. It affects males and females equally and usually develops after the age of 40. At least 15 types of amyloidosis have been identified. Each one is associated with deposits of a different kind of protein. Types of amyloidosis The major forms of this disease are primary systemic, secondary, and familial or hereditary amyloidosis. There is also another form of amyloidosis associated with Alzheimer's disease Primary systemic amyloidosis usually develops between the ages of 50 and 60. With about 2,000 new cases diagnosed annually, primary systemic amyloidosis is the most common form of this disease in the United States. Also known as light-chain-related amyloidosis, it may also occur in association with multiple myeloma (bone marrow cancer).

Human Immunology and Cancer Program Home Amyloidosis:An Overview Primary Systemic Amyloidosis Amyloid Research ... Contact Us Human Immunology and Cancer Program Primary Systemic Amyloidosis (AL Amyloidosis) The proteins associated with this type of amyloid are composed of antibody-related molecules (immunoglobulins) that are involved in the body's defense against infection. They are made by plasma cells in the bone marrow and are secreted into the blood stream. For unknown reasons, a single population or clone of plasma cells grows excessively (such as occurs in multiple myeloma and other conditions). This leads to an increased production and secretion of these proteins, some of which eventually can form amyloid. Because they result from the proliferation of a single (i.e., monoclonal) plasma cell, the antibodies produced are termed monoclonal immunoglobulins or M-components. One particular type of M-component - Bence Jones protein - was named after its discoverer, Dr. Henry Bence Jones, over 150 years ago. This protein represents a portion of the antibody molecule called the light chain; thus, when this material deposits as amyloid, the resulting condition is designated light-chain or AL amyloidosis. Features of Primary (AL) Amyloidosis The primary (AL) form of amyloidosis is relatively uncommon, with an incidence of approximately 1 per 100,000 population; it is estimated that about 2,000-3,000 new cases are diagnosed each year. The disorder typically is manifested during the fifth or sixth decade of life and is apparently non-inheritable. Because it is fairly rare, it is often overlooked as a cause of organ dysfunction until late in the course of the disease.

Although amyloidosis is not cancer, it is very serious. It is disabling or life threatening. However, growing awareness of the condition seems to be leading to substantial new research and treatment alternatives. These are the major types of amyloidosis which are all very different from each other: Primary A myloidosis is a plasma cell disorder that originates in the bone marrow and is usually treated with chemotherapy. It is the most common type of amyloidosis in the United States, with estimates of up to 2000 cases diagnosed each year, and occasionally occurs with multiple myeloma. The deposits in this type of the disease are made up of immunoglobulin light chain proteins that may be deposited in any bodily tissues or organs. The disease results when enough amyloid protein builds up in one or more organs to cause the organ(s) to malfunction. The heart, kidneys, nervous system and gastrointestinal tract are most often affected.
