Amyloidosis Alliance's Post

Details

What’s the difference between #wildtype and #hereditaryATTR amyloidosis?

Both involve the #transthyretin (TTR) protein, but they have different causes and patterns of disease 

Key takeaway:

Both are due to TTR misfolding, but wild-type happens with aging, while hereditary ATTR is genetic and can show up earlier with more varied symptoms.

Understanding the difference helps improve #diagnosis and patient care.
