Transthyretin deposition alters cardiomyocyte sarcomeric architecture, calcium transients, and contractile force
Abstract Age‐related wild‐type transthyretin amyloidosis (wtATTR) is characterized by systemic deposition of amyloidogenic fibrils of misfolded transthyretin (TTR) in the connective tissue of many organs. In the heart, this leads to age‐related heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF)....
