BACKGROUND: Cardiac AL and ATTR are potentially fatal cardiomyopathies. Current therapies do not address mechanisms of tissue dysfunction because these remain unknown. Our prior work focused on the amyloid plaque proteome, which may not capture tissue-wide proteomic alterations. OBJECTIVES: To evaluate mechanisms of tissue dysfunction in cardiac AL and ATTR using a full biopsy tissue proteomics approach. METHODS: We performed proteomics analysis on 76 ATTR and 27 AL diagnostic endomyocardial biopsies. RESULTS: Stage-3 AL patients exhibited increased coagulation, extracellular matrix remodelling (ECM), epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT), complement activation, hypoxia, and clathrin-mediated endocytosis pathways CONCLUSIONS: This study identifies known processes dysregulated in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction as well as novel pathways responsible for tissue damage. Our results support an immune-mediated mechanism of tissue toxicity in cardiac amyloidosis, especially among patients with worse outcomes.
