Overview

Familiar amyloidosis may be classified according to the type of mutant protein into 6 subtypes: Transthyretin amyloidosis (TTR), apolipoprotein AI, cystatin C, lysozyme, fibrinogen A alpha-chain, and apolipoprotein AII.


Classification

Familiar amyloidosis may be classified according to the type of mutant protein into 6 subtypes:[1]

  • transthyretin amyloidosis (TTR)
  • apolipoprotein AI
  • cystatin C
  • lysozyme
  • fibrinogen A alpha-chain
