Transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy
Transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM) resulting from deposition of transthyretin amyloid fibrils in the heart is an underrecognised cause of heart failure in the elderly and is associated with a poor life expectancy.

Three-dimensional structure of the Transthyretin-Retinol-Binding Protein Complex
Transthyretin (TTR), formerly called prealbumin, one of the transporters of the hormone thyroxine and retinol-binding protein (RBP), the specific carrier of vitamin A, forms, under physiological conditions, a macromolecular complex that prevents ...

Genome Editing for Glycogen Storage Diseases
ABSTRACT Gene therapy has been developed for several glycogen storage diseases and has advanced into clinical trials. However, the limitations of these gene therapies with regard to stability following treatment early in life have led to the development of genome editing.

There are no tools to support early detection of ATTRv signs/symptoms or to identify risk of transition to clinically detectable disease in carriers of pathogenic ATTRv variants. This retrospective cohort study describes the ACNA, a brief 23‐item assessment for use in routine clinical visits.

Combating ageing beyond the cell: Emerging roles of extracellular proteostasis
Ageing challenges the body's ability to maintain a stable and functional proteome, leading to protein damage and aggregation both inside and outside cells. This review focuses on the less well understood mechanisms of extracellular protein quality control and how they become disrupted in ageing, particularly in neurodegenerative diseases.

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.
