Ay amyloid deposits occur in two morphological classes the non-fibrillar diffuse plaques, non-congophilic, or pre-amyloid which are not associated with significant neuronal pathology, and the mature fibrous senile or neuritic plaques (end-stages of the distinct a-amino-and y secretase pathways ). 

Major classes of amyloid diseases, e.g., Alzheimer s disease. Type II diabetes, and Parkinson s, are characterized by deposition of ordered protein aggregates termed amyloidosis.Type II diabetes is an autoimmune disease. As the protein misfolds, it forms...
