Brief Summary: OBJECTIVES I Analyze prospectively the course of amyloid deposition in patients with primary secondary myeloma-associated and hereditary amyloidosis

II Determine abnormalities of humoral and delayed-type hypersensitivity in these patients

III Identify prognostic factors in hereditary amyloidosis and develop tests for genetic defects associated with systemic amyloidosis

IV Diagnose familial amyloidotic polyneuropathy FAP prior to symptom onset V Validate the correlation of low serum prealbumin and retinol binding protein levels with amyloidosis in patients with FAP
Detailed Description: PROTOCOL OUTLINE Patients receive a comprehensive evaluation with an emphasis on identifying prognostic and diagnostic factors Assessments include gastrointestinal renal hematologic dermatologic cardiac and serologic studies Immunologic studies include antinuclear antibody latex fixation and serum and urine electrophoresis

Genetic trees are constructed using detailed family history data blood and urine samples are routinely collected from relatives Family members of patients with familial amyloidotic polyneuropathy type II Indiana type undergo a flexor retinaculum biopsy of the wrist
