Abstract

La transtiretina (TTR) è una proteina di trasporto con struttura tetramerica sintetizzata principalmente (99% circa) dal fegato, che a livello ematico trasporta la tiroxina e la proteina legante il retinolo1. Proprio dalla sua funzione deriva il nome “transtiretina” [transthyretin: TRANS(ports)THY(roxin) and RETIN(ol)]. Esistono due tipi di amiloidosi sistemiche derivate dal deposito della TTR (ATTR): una forma genetica nota come “amiloidosi ereditaria da TTR” (ATTRm) e una forma non ereditaria nota come amiloidosi da TTR “wild type” (ATTRwt, anche definita in passato come “amiloidosi sistemica senile”). Nel primo caso si tratta di una malattia ereditaria con trasmissione autosomica dominante in cui la presenza di una mutazione del gene della TTR conferisce alla proteina una conformazione più instabile; pertanto il tetramero risulta più suscettibile alla dissociazione in monomeri, passaggio essenziale per l’avvio del processo amiloidogenico. Tuttavia, anche se la mutazione è presente fin dalla nascita, e quindi per tutta la vita viene prodotta una proteina anomala, questa continua a mantenere la sua conformazione fino all’età adulta, quando la proteina comincia a precipitare in forma fibrillare e a formare i depositi. Tutto ciò suggerisce l’esistenza di ulteriori meccanismi fisiopatologici oltre all’instabilità intrinseca della proteina mutata.
