CTS encodes a peroxisomal protein of the ATP binding cassette (ABC) transporter class with significant identity to the human X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy protein (ALDP).
CTS significantly attenuated atherosclerotic plaque formation and enhanced plaque stability in ApoE(-/-) mice by inhibiting the expression of lectin-like oxLDL receptor-1 (LOX-1) and MMP-9, as well as inhibiting reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation and NF-κB activation.

TransthyretinTyr69-to-Ile mutation (double-nucleotide substitution in codon 69) in a Japanese familial amyloidosis patient with cardiomyopathy and carpal tunnel syndrome.
Catechol-O-methyltransferaseVal158Met polymorphism is associated with pain and disability, but not widespread pressure pain sensitivity, in women with carpal Tunnel syndrome.
A review of the scientific literature indicated that neither the scientific basis nor the population validity of the PMP22 or TTR tests for carpal tunnel syndrome were adequately established before use on railroad track workers in 2000.

Although CTS associated with TTR amyloidosis has been known as an initial symptom in some patients with ATTR non-Val30Met FAP and those with senile systemic amyloidosis, this is the first report of ATTR Val30Met FAP patients starting with upper limb neuropathy including CTS-like symptoms.
