What is Monoclonal gammopathy and explain in detail?
Monoclonal gammopathy, also known as paraproteinemia, is the presence of excessive amounts of myeloma protein or monoclonal gamma globulin in the blood. It is usually due to an underlying immunoproliferative disorder or hematologic neoplasms, especially multiple myeloma. It is sometimes considered equivalent to plasma cell dyscrasia. The most common form of the disease is monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance.

Causes
Causes of paraproteinemia include the following:
Leukemias and lymphomas of various types, but usually B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphomas with a plasma cell component.
Myeloma
Plasmacytoma
Lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma
Idiopathic (no discernible cause): some of these will be revealed as leukemias or lymphomas over the years.
AL amyloidosis

Diagnosis
These are characterized by the presence of any abnormal protein that is involved in the immune system, which are most often immunoglobulins and are associated with the clonal proliferation of lymphocytes.When a paraproteinemia is present in the blood, there will be a narrow band, or spike, in the serum protein electrophoresis because there will be an excess of production of one protein.There are two large classes of blood proteins: albumin and globulin. They are generally equal in proportion, but albumin is much smaller than globulin, and slightly negatively charged, which leads to an accumulation at the end of the electrophoretic gel
