Disease Overview: Hereditary Transthyretin Amyloidosis
Hereditary transthyretin amyloidosis (hATTR) is a rare, systemic disease passed down through families. Caused by genetic mutations in the transthyretin (TTR) gene, it leads to a buildup of abnormal proteins called amyloid in one or more organs and tissues, impairing their function. Left untreated, hATTR can cause life-threatening complications. Early diagnosis and treatment are critical to prevent or delay progression of hATTR.

Disease and Treatment Overview: Wild-Type Transthyretin Amyloidosis
Wild-type transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTRwt) is an age-related disease caused by transthyretin (TTR) proteins that become unstable, misfold, and build up in organs, impairing their function. It is a slowly progressive condition that affects older people, most often Caucasian men over 65 years of age. Heart disease is the hallmark of ATTRwt, but it is commonly preceded by other conditions, such as carpal tunnel syndrome or spinal stenosis.
