Cryo-EM reveals structural variability of apolipoprotein A-I amyloid fibrils across organs, mutations, and clinical presentations

Abstract Hereditary apolipoprotein A-I (AApoA‑I) amyloidosis is a rare systemic disease caused by the deposition of amyloid fibrils formed by apolipoprotein A‑I in multiple organs, leading to severe clinical outcomes. With no available therapies or diagnostic tools, defining the structure of AApoA‑I fibrils is crucial to understanding disease mechanisms and guiding intervention.

Structural polymorphism of ex-vivo ALECT2 amyloid fibrils revealed by cryo-EM

Abstract ALECT2 amyloidosis is a rare systemic disease characterized by the pathological deposition of leukocyte cell-derived chemotaxin-2 (LECT2) as amyloid fibrils, primarily affecting the kidneys and liver. The molecular mechanisms underlying LECT2 aggregation remain poorly defined, hindering diagnostic and therapeutic development. Here, we present cryo-electron microscopy structures of ex-vivo ALECT2 fibrils extracted from a patient’s kidney.

Amyloid fibril polymorphism in the heart and liver of a patient with polyneuropathic ATTRv-V122Δ amyloidosis

Abstract ATTR amyloidosis is a phenotypically heterogeneous disease characterized by the pathological deposition of transthyretin in the form of amyloid fibrils into various organs. ATTR amyloidosis may result from mutations in variant (ATTRv) amyloidosis, or aging in wild-type (ATTRwt) amyloidosis. ATTRwt generally manifests as cardiomyopathy, whereas ATTRv may present as polyneuropathy, cardiomyopathy, or mixed, in combination with many other symptoms deriving from multisystem organ involvement.
