Amyloid Fibrils

Amyloid Fibrils

Amyloid fibrils are aggregates of misfolded proteins. Under most circumstances, misfolded proteins are either refolded by chaperone proteins or degraded by the proteasome. However, in the case of a mutation or a disease, these proteins can accumulate to form large clusters and often further assemble to form elongated fibers, called fibrils.
Amyloid deposits were observed as early as 1639 in the liver and the spleen. In 1854, Rudolph Virchow performed iodine staining,...

Summary

Epileptic encephalopathies present significant diagnostic and treatment challenges, often leading to poor outcomes. While genetic sequencing aids in identifying causes, targeted treatments remain limited, though some patients achieve remission with specific therapies.

Area of Science:

Neurology
Genetics
Pediatric Neurology

Background:

Epileptic encephalopathies are complex neurological disorders marked by seizures and cognitive decline.
These conditions represent a significant challenge in clinical practice due to their heterogeneity and poor prognoses.
