Alpha-1-Antitrypsin

1976
Proteinasen sind proteinspaltende Enzyme, die normalerweise nicht als solche im Plasma vorkommen, sondern als Vorstufen, die ihre Aktivitat erst durch Interaktion mit einem oder mehreren Aktivatoren erhalten. Dabei handelt es sich entweder um „selbstandige“ Proenzyme oder um solche, die zu Kaskadensystemen gehoren (ein aus einer Vorstufe entstehendes ...

[Alpha 1-antitrypsin deficiency].

Revue des maladies respiratoires, 2016
Pulmonary emphysema and liver disease are the clinical expressions of alpha 1-antitrypsin deficiency, an autosomal recessive genetic disease.Alpha 1-antitrypsin deficiency is usually associated with the homozygous Z variant of the SERPINA1 gene.

Amelioration of Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency Diseases with Genome Editing in Transgenic Mice

Human Gene Therapy, 2018
Alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency (AATD) is a hereditary liver disease caused by mutations in the SERPINA1 serine protease inhibitor gene. Most severe patients are homozygous for PiZ alleles (PiZZ; amino acid E324K), which lead to protein aggregates in ...

Alpha-1-antitrypsin in malakoplakia

Virchows Archiv A Pathological Anatomy and Histology, 1982
Macrophages in malakoplakia contain large amounts of immunoreactive alpha-1-antitrypsin (AAT). The amount of AAT remains unchanged during the morphogenetic stages of the pathological process (early, granulomatous, fibrosing phases), and does not correlate with the number or the presence of Michaelis-Gutmann (M.G.) bodies.

Alpha-1-Antitrypsin Deficiency Liver Disease.

Clinical Liver Disease, 2018
In homozygous ZZ alpha-1-antitrypsin (AAT) deficiency, the liver synthesizes large quantities of AAT mutant Z, which folds improperly during biogenesis and is retained within the hepatocytes and directed into intracellular proteolysis pathways.

Alpha-1-Antitrypsin Deficiency Panniculitis

Dermatologic Clinics, 2008
Alpha-1-antitrypsin deficiency is a congenital error of metabolism linked to pulmonary (emphysema) and liver (cirrhosis) disease. Since 1972, panniculitis has been associated with this deficiency, initially related to Weber-Christian syndrome and finally as a differentiated entity.

Cerebrospinal fluid alpha‐1‐antitrypsin alpha‐1‐antitrypsin‐elastase complex levels in meningitis

European Journal of Clinical Investigation, 1989
Abstract. Alpha‐1‐antitrypsin (A‐1‐AT) and A‐1‐AT‐elastase complex levels in cerebrospinal fluid have been evaluated in 11 children with viral meningitis (VM), 14 with bacterial meningitis (BM), 10 with tuberculous meningitis (TBM) and 10 investigated for, but found not to have meningitis (NM).

Detecting Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency

Annals of the American Thoracic Society, 2016
Alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency is a widely underrecognized condition, with evidence of persisting long diagnostic delays and patients' frequent need to see multiple physicians before initial diagnosis. Reasons for underrecognition include inadequate understanding of alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency by physicians and allied health care providers; failure ...

Deficiency of Alpha-1 Antitrypsin

Annals of Internal Medicine, 1973
Excerpt It is almost a decade since genetic deficiency of alpha-1 antitrypsin was discovered in Malmo, Sweden, by Laurell and Eriksson (1) and shown to be associated with a tendency to early-onset ...
