摘要

Provided are novel human-derived antibodies specific for transthyretin (TTR), preferably capable of binding misfolded, misassembled, and/or aggregated TTR species, as well as methods related thereto. In addition, methods of diagnosing and/or monitoring diseases and treatments thereof which are associated with TTR amyloidosis are provided. Assays and kits related to antibodies specific for TTR or TTR deposits and aggregates are also disclosed. The novel anti-TTR antibodies can be used in pharmaceutical and diagnostic compositions for TTR targeted immunotherapy and diagnostics.
