The name “amyloid” still remains • Probably because of Virchow was considered as one of the most valued scientists of his time • In the later years it was found that the chemical nature was unrelated to starch but proteins! • Amyloid proteins: Properties • Amyloid is not a single entity • More than 20 different proteins can aggregate to form fibrils. • The mechanisms of formation are different. • Therefore amyloidosis should not be considered as a single disease… rather, a group of diseases with deposition of similar appearing proteins
