Ocular Involvement in Hereditary Amyloidosis

Abstract: The term amyloidosis describes a group of rare diseases caused by protein conformation abnormalities resulting in extracellular deposition and accumulation of insoluble fibrillar aggregates. So far, 36 amyloid precursor proteins have been identified, and each one is responsible for a specific disease entity. Transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTRv) is one of the most common forms of systemic and ocular amyloidosis, due to the deposition of transthyretin (TTR), which is a transport protein mainly synthesized in the li… Show more

“…Most patients with Gly83Arg have been reported to have only ocular symptoms so far (3)(4)(5)(6)(7)(8)(9)(11)(12)(13). In fact, 32 of the 130 (25%) reported TTR mutations have been found to have ophthalmic involvement, namely, Val28Met, Leu58Arg, Lys78Phe, Ile84Ser, and so on (15,16). Of all the patients with ATTR, ocular involvement was found in no more than 10% and usually occurred at an advanced stage (15).…”

“…У 1 / 3 больных АТТRv-амилоидозом в клинической картине превалирует поражение периферической нервной системы, у 1 / 3 пациентов доминируют кардиологические проявления, что говорит о формировании амилоидной (транстиретиновой) кардиомиопатии. В остальных случаях формируется смешанный клинический вариант [13,14].…”

“…Среди белков, которые могут формировать отложения амилоида в глазу, выделяют TTR и гельзолин, для которых поражение глаз является частью системного поражения, а также кератоэпителин и лактоферрин, отложение которых происходит исключительно в тканях глаз [14]. Окулярная форма AТТR-амилоидоза занимает 10 % всех случаев, при этом поражение глаз является проявлением системного процесса и обычно наблюдается значительно позже, на развернутых стадиях заболевания.…”
