Amyloidosis Senile

Amyloidosis is a complex pathological process characterized by the deposition in tissues of amyloid - a special protein substance consisting of a large number of amino acid residues that are similar in structure (for example, serine and threonine). Normally, amyloid is formed in rare cases and does not serve as a substrate for immunity. The immune system's response to amyloids is not

Amyloidosis is a rare disease in which abnormal protein deposits form in the human body. The most common cause of amyloid disease is the body's slow immune response to chronic infection or repeated inflammation. In amyloidosis, protein build-up accumulates in the tissues and organs of the body, leading to various symptoms such as fatigue, weakness, pain, weight loss and others. One of the most common forms of amyloid disease is the senile form.

Senile amyloid disease is characterized by accumulation of beta-amyloids
