L'amylose rénale se caractérise par l'accumulation de substance amyloïde à l'intérieur du rein. Cette maladie débute par la présence de protéines en quantité anormalement élevée à l'intérieur des urines (protéinurie). L'évolution se fait vers l'apparition d'un syndrome néphrotique complet s'accompagnant d'œdème généralisé et de protéinurie cette fois-ci importante (massive) avec hypoprotidémie correspondant à une baisse très importante du taux de protéine dans le sang. 3, record 1, French, - amylo%C3%AFdose%20r%C3%A9nale

Amyloidosis is not one clinical entity but a group of diverse structurally driven protein deposition diseases. They are similar in that protein deposition occurs extracellularly and these deposits stain eosinophilic using standard tissue histologic stains, bind Congo red dye, and emit an apple-green birefringence using polarized light microscopy; exhibit metachromasia with crystal violet; and have an array of 75- to 100-Å nonbranching fibrils by electron microscopy and a twisted b-pleated sheet antiparallel configuration by x-ray crystallography. They differ, however, in the biochemical nature of the proteinaceous deposits, the "etiology" of the associated diseases (neoplastic, inflammatory, degenerative, hereditary), the tropism of protein deposition, and the spectrum of disease manifestations. 1, record 2, English, - amyloidosis

Amylose, the predominant gel-forming polymer in starch, produces stronger, relatively thermal stable gels. Because the amylose molecule is linear, it can form strong intra- and intermolecular networks "High-amylose starches are commercially used in mainly three areas: the cereal industry, confectionery and coating area," says Neil Grimwood, director of marketing and technical services of a starch supplier's food division. 1, record 8, English, - high%2Damylose%20starch

À l'origine de cette innovation : les mathématiques appliquées aux sciences pharmaceutiques et l'étude chimique de l'amylose réticulé. «Ces deux axes de recherche ont aidé à mieux comprendre l'action des polymères, signale Louis Cartilier. Et cela a joué un rôle important dans le processus de la découverte des possibilités de l'amylose réticulé, une matrice polymère dérivée de l'amidon à haute teneur en amylose», déclare le professeur. 1, record 8, French, - amidon%20%C3%A0%20haute%20teneur%20en%20amylose
