Introduction: Hereditary transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTRv) is a rare, multisystem disease caused by the accumulation of transthyretin (TTR) fibrils in cells. The deposition of transthyretin in the peripheral nervous system causes damage to the nerves and promotes their degeneration. Early identification of the onset or progression of polyneuropathy in ATTRv amyloidosis is still delayed due to the lack of validated biomarkers.
Hypotesis: The study of new biomarkers in patients with ATTRv amyloidosis with polyneuropathy (PN) may be useful for early diagnosis and treatment, improving the course of the disease.
Aim: describe the main biomarkers described in ATTRv with PN in the last 5 years, as well as evaluate their value for diagnosis and progression and their usefulness as predictive and prognostic indicators of the response to treatment.
Methods: A bibliographic review has been carried out to compile evidence of the use of biomarkers of polyneuropathy in ATTRv amyloidosis in the last 5 years, using keywords such as “Amyloidosis, Hereditary, Transthyretin-Related”, “biomarkers”, “early diagnosis” in Pubmed, Scopus and WebOfSciece, selecting 16 articles
Results: The scientific evidence found shows that certain biomarkers, including nuerofilament light chains (NfL), magnetic resonance neurography (MRN), diffusion tensor imaging (DTI), certain cytokines, amyloid deposits in the skin and levels of circulating non-native TTR (NNTTR), may be useful for diagnosis, prognosis and monitoring of response to treatment in patients with ATTRv amyloidosis with polyneuropathy
Conclusions: The results represent an advance for the study of the disease, However, larger and more longitudinal studies or clinical trials are required to better understand the role of these biomarkers in the disease and their usefulness in clinical practice.
