Ten questions about transthyretin amyloidosis
Systemic amyloidosis is a hereditary or acquired disease characterized by deposition of amyloid insoluble fibrils into body organs and tissues, causing structural abnormalities and organ dysfunction, i.e. heart failure.

The 366 patients diagnosed with transthyretin amyloidosis cardiomyopathy (ATTR‐CM) were analyzed regarding their clinical characteristics in the first year after approval of tafamidis 61 mg for ATTR‐CM in Germany. Nearly two‐thirds of the patients were in an advanced disease stage and 64% met the key criteria of the “Transthyretin Amyloidosis ...

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.

Abstract Aims Amyloid cardiomyopathy is caused by the deposition of light chain (AL) or transthyretin amyloid (ATTR) fibrils, that leads to a restrictive cardiomyopathy, often resulting in heart failure (HF) with preserved or reduced ejection fraction.

Negative for AL and ATTR: Could It Still Be Amyloid?
Amyloidosis is a systemic disease characterized by the extracellular deposition of misfolded proteins. We present a rare case of familial amyloidosis with multiorgan involvement.

Gateway and journey of patients with cardiac amyloidosis
Aims Advances have been made over the last decade in the management of cardiac amyloidosis (CA), but a delayed diagnosis is still common. The aim of this study was to describe the journey to CA diagnosis from initial clinical and to analyse time to ...

Abstract Prime editing, a novel clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)‐based technology, fuses a reverse transcriptase (RT) to an engineered CRISPR‐associated protein 9 (Cas9) and uses a prime editing guide RNA (pegRNA)‐encoded template.

Helical reconstruction of amyloids in cryoSPARC
We present practical guidelines for helical reconstruction of amyloid filaments in cryoSPARC, benchmarked against publicly available datasets. Our analysis defines current capabilities and limitations, and outlines optimization strategies to enable high‐throughput structural studies and therapeutic discovery.Amyloid‐mediated proteotoxicity underlies ...
