A phenomap of TTR amyloidosis to aid diagnostic screening
Abstract Cardiac amyloidosis due to transthyretin (ATTR) remains an underdiagnosed cause of cardiomyopathy. As awareness of the disease grows and referrals for ATTR increase, clinicians are likely to encounter more atypical forms of the condition in clinical practice.

Transthyretin-thyroid hormone internalization by trophoblasts
Normal fetal neurological development depends on a regulated supply of maternal thyroid hormone (TH). We have previously demonstrated that transthyretin (TTR) a TH binding protein, is synthesized, secreted and internalized by trophoblast cells and may ...

The role of non-coding genetic variants on transthyretin gene transcription in transthyretin amyloidosis [PDF]
The transthyretin-associated amyloidoses are a group of protein-folding disorders caused by deposition of the liver-secreted plasma protein transthyretin (TTR) in various tissues of the body.

Diagnosis and treatment of hereditary transthyretin amyloidosis (Hattr) polyneuropathy: Current perspectives on improving patient care [PDF]
Hereditary transthyretin amyloidosis (hATTR) with polyneuropathy (formerly known as Familial Amyloid Polyneuropathy) is a rare disease due to mutations in the gene encoding transthyretin (TTR) and characterized by multisystem extracellular deposition of ...
