Overview
Common risk factors in the development of renal amyloidosis may be environmental and genetic such as heterozygous mutations in the genes for lysozyme, apolipoprotein AI, apolipoprotein AII, or fibrinogen A alpha-chain.
Risk Factors
The most potent risk factor in the development of renal amyloidosis are genetic . Other risk factors include age.[1]
Common Risk Factors
- Common risk factors in the development of renal amyloidosis may be environmental and genetic.
- Common risk factors in the development of renal amyloidosis include:[1][2]
- Age
- SAA1
- Point mutations in the apoAI gene
- Point mutations in the apoAII gene
- Heterozygous mutations in the genes for lysozyme, apolipoprotein AI, apolipoprotein AII, or fibrinogen A alpha-chain
