Transthyretin (TTR) amyloidosis, also known as transthyretin-related familial amyloidotic polyneuropathy (ATTR-FAP), is a fatal hereditary systemic amyloidosis caused by mutant forms of TTR.
TTR is a protein biomarker related to diverse types of amyloidosis, such as familial amyloidotic polyneuropathy type I (FAP-I), which is the most common hereditary systemic amyloidosis.
