Transthyretin levels in the vitreous correlate with change in visual acuity after vitrectomy [PDF]
Background/aim: Little is known about biochemical markers related to change in visual acuity after vitrectomy. The potential use of transthyretin (TTR), a carrier of the retinol/retinol-binding protein, as a biochemical marker protein, was investigated ...

Efficacy and Safety of Acoramidis in Transthyretin Amyloid Cardiomyopathy.
BACKGROUND Transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy is characterized by the deposition of misfolded monomeric transthyretin (TTR) in the heart. Acoramidis is a high-affinity TTR stabilizer that acts to inhibit dissociation of tetrameric TTR and leads to more

Structure of human transthyretin complexed with bromophenols: a new mode of binding [PDF]
The binding of two organohalogen substances, pentabromophenol (PBP) and 2,4,6-tribromophenol (TBP), to human transthyretin (TTR), a thyroid hormone transport protein, has been studied by in vitro competitive binding assays and by X-ray crystallography ...

Progression of echocardiographic parameters and prognosis in transthyretin cardiac amyloidosis
Transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTR‐CM) is an increasingly diagnosed disease. Echocardiography is widely utilized, but studies to confirm the value of echocardiography for tracking changes over time are not available.
