Abstract Background and Aims Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) is a deadly but poorly understood disease, and its treatment options are very limited. The aim of this study was to identify the molecular drivers of ICC and search for therapeutic targets.

Transthyretin cardiac amyloidosis.
Transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM) may be an under recognized cause of heart failure (HF). TTR amyloidosis can be inherited, caused by variants in the TTR gene (ATTRv) or by deposition of wild-type TTR protein (ATTRwt), leading to high mortality if untreated.

Transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTR) is a progressive and systemic disease caused by the misfolding and amyloid aggregation of transthyretin (TTR). Stabilizing the TTR tetramers and disrupting the formed TTR aggregation are treated as a promising strategy for the treatment of ATTR.

Decreased transthyretin predicts a poor prognosis in primary myelodysplastic syndrome
BackgroundThis study aims to investigate the prognostic significance of transthyretin in newly diagnosed myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS).MethodsThe clinical, laboratory, and follow-up data of 280 newly diagnosed patients with MDS were collected.

Aggregated transthyretin is specifically packaged into placental nano-vesicles in preeclampsia
In preeclampsia, the serum levels of transthyretin, a carrier protein for thyroxine, are elevated. Transthyretin isolated from preeclamptic serum is also aggregated and can induce preeclampsia-like symptoms in pregnant IL10−/− mice.

Hereditary cardiac amyloidosis associated with Pro24Ser transthyretin mutation: a case report
Background Transthyretin amyloidosis is a systemic disorder caused by extracellular deposition of insoluble amyloid fibrils in peripheral and autonomic nerves, heart, kidney, gastrointestinal tract, and other organs.

Hereditary transthyretin amyloidosis overview [PDF]
AbstractHereditary amyloidogenic transthyretin (ATTRv) amyloidosis is a rare autosomal dominantly inherited disorder caused by mutations in the transthyretin (TTR) gene. The pathogenetic model of ATTRv amyloidosis indicates that amyloidogenic, usually missense, mutations destabilize the native TTR favouring the dissociation of the tetramer into ...
