Machine learning predicts immunoglobulin light chain toxicity through somatic mutations
2019-11-21
Abstract excerpt
In systemic light chain amyloidosis (AL), pathogenic monoclonal immunoglobulin light chains (LCs) form toxic aggregates and amyloid fibrils in target organs. Prompt diagnosis is crucial to avoid permanent organ damage. However, delays in diagnosis are common, with a consequent poor patient’s prognosis, as symptoms usually appear only after strong organ involvement. Here, we present LICTOR, a machine learning appro...
