Abstract:
:A 48-year-old Japanese woman died of multiple myeloma (lambda light-chain type) with chronic renal failure. Histological examination revealed deposition of a homogeneous substance and crystals in the kidneys and thyroid gland. The homogeneous substance was stained with Congo red after permanganate treatment but did not stain with antibody to amyloid A protein, and it was recognized as AL-type amyloid. Crystals were not stained with Congo red, but crystals were stained with antibody to the lambda light chain. Since AL-type amyloid is considered to be derived from a myeloma light chain, the present case showed two different types of deposition, both of which were derived from the same myeloma protein.

杂志文章abstract:CONTEXT:The Mre11-Rad50-NBS1 complex plays an important role in telomere maintenance. Recently, it has been proposed that alterations in Mre11 function may be contributing factors in the development of some tumors. Moreover, mutations of Mre11 have been demonstrated to cause reduced Mre11 immunostaining. OBJECTIVE:To ...
