Transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy
Medicina Clínica (English Edition), 2021Transthyretin (TTR) cardiac amyloidosis is a severe, progressive, infiltrative disease caused by the deposition of TTR at cardiac level. It may be due to a genetic alteration in its hereditary form (ATTRv) or as a consequence of an age-related degenerative process (ATTRwt). Thanks to advances in imaging techniques and the possibility of achieving a non-

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part B: Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 1995
A cDNA library was constructed from liver RNA of the Australian diprotodont marsupial Macropus eugenii, the Tammar wallaby. A cloned full-length transthyretin cDNA was sequenced. The derived amino-acid sequence showed 68% overall similarity to that of human transthyretin, with 86% similarity in the thyroxine binding site.

Transthyretin Cardiac Amyloidosis
Current Cardiology Reports, 2017Transthyretin (TTR)-related cardiac amyloidosis is a progressive infiltrative cardiomyopathy that mimics hypertensive, hypertrophic heart disease and may go undiagnosed. Transthyretin-derived amyloidosis accounts for 18% of all cases of cardiac amyloidosis.

Cardiac transthyretin amyloidosis
Heart, 2012Cardiac amyloidosis of transthyretin fibril protein (ATTR) type is an infiltrative cardiomyopathy characterised by ventricular wall thickening and diastolic heart failure. Increased access to cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging has led to a marked increase in referrals to our centre of Caucasian patients with wild-type ATTR (senile systemic ...

Transthyretin-Related and Transthyretin-like Proteins
2009Bioinformatics programs are highly accurate in identifying protein families directly from protein sequences, even when the sequence identity is very low. The transthyretin-related proteins (TRPs) are one example of a protein family that has been identified.

Hereditary transthyretin amyloidosis associated with a transthyretin variant Thr59Arg
Amyloid, 2017Hereditary transthyretin (TTR) amyloidosis is characterized by ATTR amyloid deposits in various tissue sites and organs, such as peripheral nerves, heart, gastrointestinal tract, kidneys, eyes, and...

Hereditäre Transthyretin-Amyloidosen
Der Nervenarzt, 2014Hereditary amyloidosis is an autosomal dominant fatal multisystem disease caused by extracellular deposition of misfolded proteins and, therefore represents a hereditary protein folding or deposition disease that leads to progressive organ damage and eventually death.

Transthyretin Mass Determination for Detection of Transthyretin Familial Amyloid
2009The concentration range of plasma proteins exceeds the dynamic range of any single analytical method. It has been estimated that the concentration range of serum proteins exceeds ten orders of magnitude (1). Because of this, prior immunoselection of even abundant proteins facilitates the relative nonquantitative observations required to show structural

Transthyretin and the Transthyretin Amyloidoses
2007Transthyretin is a normal serum protein that carries the secondary thyroid hormone thyroxine and retinol binding protein when it is loaded with retinol. It is synthesized primarily in the liver but there is also significant production in the choroid plexus and the retina. Both message and protein are found in the kidney but that site does not appear to

Computational Studies on Transthyretin
Current Medicinal Chemistry, 2012Among the 23 different fibril proteins described in human amyloidosis, transthyretin is associated with the most common hereditary form of the disease and its knowledge is corroborated through about 150 crystal structures in addition to thousands of small ligands tested as fibril formation inhibitors. In spite of the large amount of available data, the
