Knockdown of FBG1 in HepG2 cells increases levels of endogenous A1AT.
A) Transient transfection of shRNAs against FBG1 in Cos-7 cells. B) Stable HepG2 clones were selected after infection with FBG1-knockdown lentivirus. Total cell lysates were separated on SDS-PAGE gels and probed with antibodies against FBG1, A1AT, and ...

Misfolding linked mutations of SERPINA1 gene are uncommon in preeclampsia
Background: Alpha-1 antitrypsin (A1AT) is a protease inhibitor that plays an important role in regulating oxidative stress in preeclampsia (PE). Recent studies have shown that A1AT is misfolded in PE.

IgE-tailpiece associates with α-1-antitrypsin (A1AT) to protect IgE from proteolysis without compromising its ability to interact with FcεRI [PDF]
Several splice variants of IgE exist in human plasma, including a variant called IgE-tailpiece (IgE-tp) that differs from classical IgE by the replacement of two carboxy-terminal amino acids with eight novel residues that include an ultimate cysteine. To

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

α1-antitrypsin mitigates NLRP3-inflammasome activation in amyloid β1–42-stimulated murine astrocytes
Background Neuroinflammation has an essential impact on the pathogenesis and progression of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Mostly mediated by microglia and astrocytes, inflammatory processes lead to degeneration of neuronal cells.

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 ...
