Variant Abeta2m Amyloidosis

Description

Autosomal dominant beta 2-microglobulinic amyloidosis is a form of amyloidosis (see this term), characterized by accumulation and extensive visceral deposition of anamyloidogenic variant of beta 2 microglobulin (D76N variant β2M) leading to progressive gastrointestinal dysfunction, Sjögren syndrome (see this term) and autonomic neuropathy.
