Robbins Pathologic basis of disease 8th Table 5-12.Patients on long-term hemodialysis for renal failure develop amyloidosis owing to deposition of b2 -microglobulin.This protein is present in high concentrations in the serum of patients with renal disease and is retained in circulation because it cannot be filtered through the cuprophane dialysis membranes.CLASSIFICATION OF AMYLOIDOSISClinicopathologic categoryAssociated diseasesMajor fibril proteinPrecursor proteinSystemic Generalized AmyloidosisImmunocyte dyscrasias with amyloidosis primary amyloidosisMultiple myeloma and other monoclonalB-cell proliferationsALImmunoglobulin light chains, chiefly y typeReactive systemic amyloidosis secondary amyloidosisChronic inflammatory conditionsAASAAHemodialysis-associated amyloidosisChronic renal failureAB2mB2 microglobulinFamilial Mediterranean fever-AASAAFamilial amyloidotic neuropathies-ATTRTransthyretinSenile amyloidosis-ATTRTransthyretinLocalized AmyloidosisSenile cerebralAlzheimer diseaseARAPPMedullary carcinoma of thyroid-A CalCalcitoninIslets of LangerhansType 2 diabetesAIAPPIslet amyloid peptideIsolated atrial amyloidosis-AANFAtrial natriuretic factorPrion diseaseVarious prion diseases of the CNSMisfolded prion protein PrPSCNormal prion protein PrP
