Biochemistry
Amyloidosis is a condition characterized by the abnormal deposition of amyloid proteins in various tissues and organs, disrupting their normal function. This misfolded protein aggregation results from the failure of the body to break down these proteins properly, leading to serious health issues. The accumulation of amyloid deposits can interfere with protein folding and stability, ultimately causing cell damage and organ dysfunction.
