β2-Microglobulin amyloid fibril-induced membrane disruption is enhanced by endosomal lipids and acidic pH.

Although the molecular mechanisms underlying the pathology of amyloidoses are not well understood, the interaction between amyloid proteins and cell membranes is thought to play a role in several amyloid diseases. Amyloid fibrils of β2-microglobulin (β2m), associated with dialysis-related amyloidosi...
