Amyloid : the international journal of experimental and clinical investigation : the official journal of the International Society of Amyloidosis

Aims & Scope

Amyloid: the Journal of Protein Folding Disorders is dedicated to the study of all aspects of the protein groups and associated disorders that are classified as the amyloidoses as well as other disorders associated with abnormal protein folding.

The journals major focus points are: etiology, pathogenesis, histopathology, chemical structure, nature of fibrillogenesis; whilst also publishing papers on the basic and chemical genetic aspects of many of these disorders.

Amyloid is recognised as one of the leading publications on amyloid protein classifications and the associated disorders, as well as clinical studies on all aspects of amyloid related neurodegenerative diseases and major clinical studies on inherited amyloidosis, especially those related to transthyretin.

The Journal also publishes book reviews, meeting reports, editorials, thesis abstracts, review articles and symposia in the various areas listed above.
