描述 | The transthyretin amyloidoses (ATTR) are caused by aggregation of transthyretin (TTR), a natively tetrameric protein involved in the transport of thyroxine and the vitamin A–retinol-binding protein complex[1]. Tafamidis meglumine is a potent and selective transthyretin (TTR) stabilizer, shows comparable potency and efficacy to the mutant homotetramers V30M-TTR, V122I-TTR and wild-type TTR (WT-TTR), with EC50s of 2.7-3.2 μM[1]. It has recently completed Phase II/III trials for the treatment of Transthyretin Type Familial Amyloid Polyneuropathy (TTR-FAP) and demonstrated a slowing of disease progression in patients heterozygous for the V30M TTR mutation. Patient-derived amyloidogenic variants of TTR, including kinetically and thermodynamically less stable mutants, are also stabilized by tafamidis binding[1]. | ||
作用机制 | Tafamidis binds to the weaker dimer–dimer interface of transthyretin . |
