To elucidate whether the amount of tissue-deposited amyloid in familial amyloid polyneuropathy (FAP) patients decreases or increases over the long-term course after liver transplantation (LT), we examined changes in histopathological and biochemical characteristics of abdominal fat amyloid in the tr

Liver transplantation (LT) is the only curative option for patients with familial amyloid polyneuropathy (FAP) at present. Twenty patients with FAP underwent LT between May 1998 and June 2007. Transthyretin mutations included predominantly the Val30Met mutation but also 10 other mutations. Seven pat

Familial amyloidotic polyneuropathy (FAP) patients present adrenergic cardiac input blockade secondary to amyloid deposits and sympathetic neuropathy. Consequently, their capacity to compensate for hemodynamic changes is limited. To avoid hemodynamic disturbances in sequential liver transplants, a s

To analyze the regulation of human serum amyloid P component (SAP) gene expression, we have produced seven transgenic mice. The 3.3 kb human SAP genes containing about 0.8 kb of 5' and 1.5 kb of 3' flanking region were injected into fertilized eggs of C57BL/6 mice. In five of the seven transgenic mi
