It results in protein fibrils called amyloids depositing in interstitial space (not inside cells) and cause damage there. The protein fibrils come from proteins that are misfolded, however the specific protein that is misfolded can vary. We know of at least 23 different proteins that can aggregate to form amyloid fibrils. The reason these proteins aggregate is because when they’re misfolded they expose more β-sheets. T..."
