Transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy

open access: yes, 2020
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

open access: yes, 2002
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

open access: yesJournal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, Volume 49, Issue 5, September 2026.
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.

Carpal tunnel transthyretin amyloidosis case report comparing MRI findings with amyloid negative control

open access: yesDiscover Medicine
Amyloidosis is a systemic disorder characterized by extracellular protein deposition, with transthyretin amyloidosis being the most common subtype. Carpal tunnel syndrome is a frequent early manifestation, yet detailed MRI characterization of amyloid ...

Testing the utility of the first step of system evaluation theory in creating a system map of care for cardiac amyloidosis early detection: A case study.

open access: yesPLoS ONE
BackgroundHeart failure is a clinical syndrome resulting from numerous pathological conditions. One cause of heart failure, transthyretin cardiac amyloidosis, presents insidiously with common and seemingly unrelated symptoms.

Asymptomatic Carrier Neurologic Assessment: A Tool for Early Detection of Symptomatic Transition in Pathogenic TTR Gene Variant Carriers

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Neurology, Volume 33, Issue 9, September 2026.
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

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, Volume 293, Issue 18, Page 5558-5584, September 2026.
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.

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

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.
