<prompt> Which type of Amyloidosis is caused by mutation of the transthyretin protein ?-Familial Mediterranean feverFamilial amyloidotic polyneuropathyDialysis associated amyloidosisPrion protein associated amyloidosis  <response>: In contrast with familial Mediterranean fever, a group of autosomal dominant familial disorders is characterized by deposition of amyloid predominantly in the peripheral and autonomic nerves. These familial amyloidotic polyneuropathies have been described in kindreds in different pas of the world--for example, in Pougal, Japan, Sweden, and the United States. As mentioned previously, the fibrils in these familial polyneuropathies are made up of mutant forms of transthyretin ATTRs. Robbins 9 th edition page no. 156
