Eplontersen sodium is a triantennary N-acetyl galactosamine (GalNAc3-7a)-conjugated antisense oligonucleotide that targets transthyretin (TTR) mRNA, effectively inhibiting the production of both variant and wild-type TTR protein. By reducing TTR levels, Eplontersen sodium plays a crucial role in addressing conditions associated with amyloid TTR (ATTR) amyloidosis, where misfolded TTR leads to the formation of amyloid fibrils affecting the heart and peripheral nerves. This compound is pivotal for research in therapeutic strategies aimed at managing hereditary and wild-type forms of amyloidosis.
