PERCC1‐associated enteropathy: Diagnostic challenges and enteral autonomy achieved with teduglutide
Abstract Congenital diarrheas and enteropathies (CODE) are rare inherited disorders characterized by early‐onset intractable diarrhea. Though progress has been made in elucidating the genetic basis of CODE, much remains to be discovered. Another challenge is the lack of curative therapies—treatment is primarily supportive including enteral and ...

The impact of smoke exposure on the clinical phenotype of alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency in Ireland: exploiting a national registry to understand a rare disease. [PDF]
Individuals with Alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency (AATD) have mutations in the SERPINA1 gene causing genetic susceptibility to early onset lung and liver disease that may result in premature death.

Endoplasmic reticulum polymers impair luminal protein mobility and sensitize to cellular stress in alpha1-antitrypsin deficiency. [PDF]
UNLABELLED: Point mutants of alpha1 -antitrypsin (α1AT) form ordered polymers that are retained as inclusions within the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) of hepatocytes in association with neonatal hepatitis, cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma.

When protein losing enteropathy persists: A case series of viral and lymphatic‐associated etiologies
Abstract Protein‐losing enteropathy (PLE) is a rare condition that is characterized by loss of plasma protein in the intestines leading to hypoproteinemia with subsequent peripheral edema and possibly anasarca. The pathophysiology of PLE varies depending on the etiology and involves either intestinal mucosal injury or lymphatic system alterations ...

Liver transplantation for alcoholic cirrhosis: Long term follow-up and impact of disease recurrence [PDF]
Background. Alcoholic liver disease has emerged as a leading indication for hepatic transplantation, although it is a controversial use of resources. We aimed to examine all aspects of liver transplantation associated with alcohol abuse.

Protein glycosylation in lung cancer from a mass spectrometry perspective
ABSTRACT Lung cancer is a severe disease for which better diagnostic and therapeutic approaches are urgently needed. Increasing evidence implies that aberrant protein glycosylation plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis and progression of lung cancer.

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

Abstract Carrier screening for genetic conditions performed preconception or during pregnancy allows identification of fetal risk for inherited autosomal recessive and X‐linked conditions. The goal is to identify at‐risk patients/couples and offer them reproductive options such as preimplantation genetic diagnosis, prenatal testing, or targeted newborn
