By mass spectrometry three amyloid signature proteins were also identified: vitronectin, apolipoprotein A-IV and apolipoprotein A-I in 6/7 (85.71%), 4/7 (57.14%), and 3/7 (42.86%) cases, respectively, contributing with new knowledge about the amyloid proteome of amyloidosis in wild avian species. Here, VTN is linked to amyloidosis.
