Overview
Hereditary amyloidosis can be caused by genetic mutations in genes encoding transthyretin, apolipoprotein AI, apolipoprotein AII, Lysozyme, gelsolin, fibrinogen Aa-chain, and cystatin C.
Causes
Common Causes
Common causes of familial amyloidosis may include genetic mutations in:[1][2][3][4]
- Transthyretin (TTR)
- Apolipoprotein AI
- Apolipoprotein AII
- Fibrinogen Aa
- Lysozyme
- Gelsolin
- Cystatin C
