ABSTRACT Background and aims Non‐alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) affects about a quarter of the world's population. Liver biopsy remains the gold standard for diagnosing the progressive form of NAFLD called Non‐alcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH) but it is invasive, prone to sampling errors and observer variability, and impractical for widespread ...

Affinity Proteomics‐Based Non‐Invasive Detection of Clinically Significant Liver Disease
Using UK Biobank proteomic data, we identified a five‐protein score reflecting hepatic stellate cell activation and hepatocellular injury that predicts major adverse liver outcomes and clinically significant fibrosis, with consistent performance validated in two independent cohorts (patients with HIV and alpha1‐antitrypsin deficiency).

Alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency 50 years later
National audienceAlpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency is a frequent genetic disorder associated with pulmonary emphysema in smokers and with liver cirrhosis. Aside from lung or liver transplantation, only replacement therapy can currently slow the progression ...

Portuguese consensus document for the management of alpha-1-antitrypsin deficiency
Alpha-1-antitrypsin deficiency (AATD) is a genetic autosomal codominant disorder caused by mutations in SERPINA1 gene. It is one of the most prevalent genetic disorders, although it remains underdiagnosed. Whereas at international level there are several

In ANA‐positive patients with suspected autoimmune hepatitis (AIH), liver biopsy rarely altered therapeutic management when alanine aminotransferase (ALT) was below 101 U/L and cirrhosis was absent. These findings suggest that biopsy may be safely deferred in this low‐risk group.

Exacerbations, health status and sibling pair comparisons in severe Alpha-1-Antitrypsin Deficiency
Alpha-1-Antitrypsin Deficiency (AATD) is a risk factor for the development of early-onset emphysema and airflow obstruction. The current work defines exacerbations, lung function and health status in these patients including sibling pairs.

ABSTRACT Introduction This explanatory pilot study presents a workflow to identify approved drugs, which could be repurposed for periodontitis therapy using salivary proteomics combined with drug‐target database screening. Methods Proteomic analyses of saliva using LC–MS/MS were conducted in two independent settings: a cohort (sub‐study I, N = 187) and

Migraine Causality in Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency
Alpha1-antitrypsin (A1AT) is an anti-inflammatory mediator with antiprotease activity associated with anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory effects in various inflammatory conditions.

Integrated transcriptomic, single‐cell, pseudotime, cell–cell communication, human tissue, and in vivo analyses define a dynamic four‐gene axis across the MASLD continuum. Progressive CYP2C19 downregulation and AKR1B10, COL1A2, and SPP1 upregulation link metabolic dysfunction to disease progression, while AKR1B10 knockdown or CYP2C19 overexpression ...
