Emphysema in an 11-month-old boy with alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency. [PDF]
Pediatric development of emphysema in Alpha‐1 Antitrypsin Deficiency (A1ATD) has been rarely described. In this case report, we document an 11‐month boy with A1ATD phenotype PiZZ with basilar centrilobular emphysema, the earliest such documented case.

Exacerbations, health status and sibling pair comparisons in severe Alpha-1-Antitrypsin Deficiency [PDF]
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.

Alpha-1-antitrypsin: a novel human high temperature requirement protease A1 (HTRA1) substrate in human placental tissue. [PDF]
The human serine protease high temperature requirement A1 (HTRA1) is highly expressed in the placental tissue, especially in the last trimester of gestation. This suggests that HTRA1 is involved in placental formation and function.

PROINFLAMMATORY CYTOKINE PROFILE IN PATIENTS WITH DIFFERENT ALPHA-1-ANTITRYPSIN PHENOTYPES
Alpha-1-antitrypsin (A1AT) exerts a wide spectrum of protective effects, being focused on reduction of secondary injury in inflammation. Moreover, A1AT inhibits some serine proteases, and down-regulates production of proinflammatory cytokines.
