Anno:
2023
Introduction. Transthyretin (TTR) is a plasma protein that transports thyroxin and retinol complexed to retinol-binding protein (RBP). TTR misfolding and aggregation can lead to the extracellular deposition of amyloid in the myocardium, causing TTR cardiac amyloidosis (ATTR-CA). Aim of this study is to develop a native electrophoretic method to…
