Abstract excerpt
AL amyloidosis is a life-threatening disease characterized by the deposition of amyloidogenic immunoglobulin light chain secreted from clonal plasma cells. Here we established an in-vitro screening system of amyloid inhibition of a variable domain in λ6 light chain mutant (Vλ6), Wil, and screened a food-additive compound library to identify compounds inhibiting the fibril formation. We found gossypetin and...
