40 years of CEPARM: transforming amyloidosis related to transthyretin from neglect to recognition [PDF]

open access: yesArquivos de Neuro-Psiquiatria
Variant transthyretin amyloidosis with polyneuropathy (ATTRv-PN) and cardiomyopathy (ATTRv-CM), formerly known as familial amyloidotic polyneuropathy (FAP), is a severe, progressive disorder caused by mutations in the transthyretin (TTR) gene ...

Neuropathy in Val122Ile Hereditary Transthyretin (ATTR) Amyloidosis: A Multicenter Retrospective Cohort Study [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the Peripheral Nervous System, Volume 31, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims The Val122Ile ATTR Amyloidosis has traditionally been linked to cardiac manifestations. Recent studies suggest that neuropathy may be relevant. In this study, we characterized its peripheral nerve manifestations in depth. Methods This was a national, multicenter, observational, retrospective study.

Spatial patterns of β-amyloid (Aβ) deposits in familial and sporadic Alzheimer's disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The spatial patterns of the diffuse, primitive, and classic β-amyloid (Aβ) deposits were compared in cortical regions in early-onset familial Alzheimer's disease (EO-FAD) linked to mutations of the amyloid precursor protein APP) or presenilin 1 (PSEN1 ...

Regulation of the metabolism of the Alzheimer's amyloid precursor protein by contactin 5 and BIN1 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a progressive form of dementia, which currently has no cure. The metabolism of the amyloid precursor protein (APP) is an important determinant in the development of AD.

Regional distribution of amyloid-Bri deposition and its association with neurofibrillary degeneration in familial British dementia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Familial British dementia (FBD), pathologically characterized by cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA), amyloid plaques, and neurofibrillary degeneration, is associated with a stop codon mutation in the BRI gene resulting in the production of an ...

Ectodomain shedding of the amyloid precursor protein: Cellular control mechanisms and novel modifiers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Proteolytic cleavage in the ectodomain of the amyloid precursor protein (APP) is a key regulatory step in the generation of the Alzheimer's disease amyloid-beta (A beta) pepticle and occurs through two different protease activities termed alpha- and beta-

Analysis of Toxic Amyloid Fibril Interactions at Natively Derived Membranes by Ellipsometry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
There is an ongoing debate regarding the culprits of cytotoxicity associated with amyloid disorders. Although small pre-fibrillar amyloid oligomers have been implicated as the primary toxic species, the fibrillar amyloid material itself can also induce ...
