== Overview ==
== Overview ==
[[Amyloid]] is an abnormal insoluble [[extracellular]] [[protein]] that deposits in the different tissues and causes organic dysfunction and a wide variety of clinical syndromes. In systemic amyloidosis, [[amyloid]] gradually accumulate and [[amyloid]] deposition is widespread in the viscera, [[blood vessel]] walls, and in the different [[Connective tissue|connective tissues]]. [[AL amyloidosis|Primary (AL) amyloidosis)]] is the most common type of amyloidosis. It results from aggregation and deposition of monoclonal [[Immunoglobulin|immunoglobulin (Ig)]] [[Light chain|light chains]] that usually produced by [[plasma cell]] clones. [[AA amyloidosis|Secondary amyloidosis]] is associated with chronic [[inflammation]] (such as [[tuberculosis]] or [[rheumatoid arthritis]]). Hereditary (or familial) amyloidosis are [[Autosome|autosomal]] [[Dominance relationship|dominant]] diseases that [[inherited]] variant [[Protein|proteins]] cause the production and deposition of [[amyloid]] fibrils. Some [[Neurodegenerative disease|neurodegenerative disorders]] such as [[Parkinson's disease]], [[Alzheimer's disease|Alzheimer]], and [[Huntington's disease]] may occur in localised amyloidosis. On microscopic pathology, typical green [[birefringence]] under [[Polarization|polarized]] light after [[Congo red]] staining (appears in red under normal light).
The [[incidence]] of AA amyloidosis is approximately 0.16 per 100,000 individuals in 2008 in the United kingdom. The [[mortality rate]] of systemic amyloidosis is approximately 100 per 100,000 deaths in developed countries. Secondary amyloidosis more commonly affects children. Men are more commonly affected by amyloidosis than women.

Overview

The incidence of AA amyloidosis is approximately 0.16 per 100,000 individuals in 2008 in the United kingdom. The mortality rate of systemic amyloidosis is approximately 100 per 100,000 deaths in developed countries. Secondary amyloidosis more commonly affects children. Men are more commonly affected by amyloidosis than women.
