| Outline of Research at the Start |
トランスサイレチン型アミロイドーシスは，頻度の高いアミロイドーシスである．本症に対しては，肝移植，トランスサイレチン四量体安定化薬，遺伝子治療による治療が可能となり長期生存が可能になっている．しかし，これらの治療は脳には作用しないことから，長期生存例において中枢神経症状が頻発しており，この病態の解明・治療法開発が望まれている．
本研究では，この病態の解明および自然経過，本病態に対する治療法の開発を目指す．

| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We investigated the clinical characteristics, and distribution and progression pattern of ATTR-type CAA by using PiB-PET imaging.
We enrolled 31 ATTRv amyloidosis patients. Eight patients developed CNS symptoms due to CAA. Mean duration of illness from onset to CNS symptom onset was 17 years. Seven patients developed TFNEs, 2 developed multiple cerebellar hemorrhages, and 2 developed cognitive decline. The amount of PiB accumulation increased as a function of disease duration. Annual increase rate of SUVR in female was significantly greater as compared with that in male. SUVR was significantly increased at the follow-up PET analysis as compared with the first PET analysis. The 3D-SSP analysis demonstrated that CNS amyloid deposition started in the upper middle surface of cerebellar cortex around 10 years after onset, and then spread out into entire surface of cerebellum, Sylvian fissure, and anterior part of longitudinal fissure of cerebrum around 15 years after onset.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
遺伝性ATTRアミロイドーシスは末梢神経障害や心筋症を主症状とする疾患であるが，肝移植，TTR四量体安定化薬（タファミジス），核酸医薬（パチシラン）などの開発によりこれらが克服され，本症患者の予後が改善している．しかし，これらの症状は中枢神経のアミロイドーシスには無効なため，長期生存患者で脳アミロイドアンギオパチーアンギオパチーによる中枢神経症状が大きな問題となっている．
本研究により遺伝性ATTRアミロイドーシスの中枢神経症状の特徴が明らかになった．またPiB-PETが本症における脳アミロイド沈着の早期診断および治療効果判定に有用なバイオマーカーであることが明らかになった．
