Background
Transthyretin (TTR), also called prealbumin, is a 55-kDa tetrameric transport protein primarily synthesized in the liver and choroid plexus. It binds and transports thyroid hormones (T3/T4) and retinol (via retinol-binding protein) in blood and cerebrospinal fluid. TTR is implicated in amyloidosis, where misfolded monomers aggregate into insoluble fibrils, causing hereditary ATTR (hATTR) amyloidosis (due to mutations like V30M) or wild-type ATTR (ATTRwt) amyloidosis (age-related). These deposits lead to organ dysfunction, particularly in the heart (cardiomyopathy) and nerves (neuropathy).
