Abstract excerpt
Transthyretin amyloidosis is a systemic protein misfolding disorder with diverse clinical phenotypes, including cardiomyopathy, polyneuropathy, or a combination of both. While structural polymorphism of amyloid fibrils has been linked to disease heterogeneity in neurodegenerative disorders, its role in transthyretin amyloidosis remains unclear. Here, we used cryo-electron microscopy to analyze ex vivo fibrils...
