Cell‐protective mechanisms of alpha 1 antitrypsin (A1AT) in the lung endothelium
Recent studies uncovered non‐cannonical functions of A1AT that lead to cellular protection from apoptosis and inflammation, including suppression of cigarette smoke (CS)‐induced increases in TNFα. We set out to investigate the mechanisms by which A1AT antagonizes TNFα?in vivo and in primary lung endothelial ...

Background: Canine atopic dermatitis (cAD) is a common, chronic skin condition characterised by epidermal barrier dysfunction, immune dysregulation and cutaneous dysbiosis. While “emollient plus” formulations are widely used in human atopic dermatitis, their role in cAD remains underexplored. Hypothesis/Objectives: To evaluate the clinical efficacy and

Identification of a rare p.G320R alpha-1-antitrypsin variant in emphysema and lung cancer patients
The alpha-1-antitrypsin (A1AT) gene is highly polymorphic, with more than 100 genetic variants identified of which some can affect A1AT protein concentration and/or function and lead to pulmonary and/or liver disease.

Background: DNA‐based vaccination rapidly induces strong cellular and humoral immune responses, which may be enhanced by inclusion of lysosomal‐associated membrane protein‐1 (LAMP). Objectives: This proof‐of‐concept study evaluated the efficacy and safety of a Der f 2/Zen 1‐LAMP‐based DNA vaccine immunotherapy in client‐owned dogs with nonseasonal AD ...

ABSTRACT Background Identification of offending foods in dogs with adverse food reactions is usually based on “deterioration” during open food challenges. Objectives To examine the placebo effect during double‐blinded, placebo‐controlled food challenges using a predefined set of criteria for relapse.
