Hereditary transthyretin (TTR)-related amyloidosis is caused by mutations in the TTR gene. The mutations destabilize the tetramer and/or monomer of TTR, and thus the stabilization of TTR is a key strategy for the treatment of TTR-related amyloidosis. In this review, we summarized the natural products and synthetic compounds that have been shown to inhibit the amyloidogenesis of TTR. The stabilizers and/or the amyloid fibril disrupters isolated from natural sources may become lead compounds for the treatment of TTR-related amyloidosis.
