The Extracellular Chaperone Haptoglobin Prevents Serum Fatty Acid-promoted Amyloid Fibril Formation of β(2)-Microglobulin, Resistance to Lysosomal Degradation, and Cytotoxicity

Fibril formation of β(2)-microglobulin and associated inflammation occur in patients on long term dialysis. We show that the plasma protein haptoglobin prevents the fatty acid-promoted de novo fibril formation of β(2)-microglobulin even at substoichiometric concentration. The fibrils are cytotoxic,...
