Structural characterization and conformational dynamics of alpha-1 antitrypsin pathogenic variants causing alpha-1-antitrypsin deficiency

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2022
Background: Alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency (A1ATD) is a progressive lung disease caused by inherited pathogenic variants in the SERPINA1 gene. However, their actual role in maintenance of structural and functional characteristics of the corresponding α-1

Systemic modified messenger RNA for replacement therapy in alpha 1-antitrypsin deficiency

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2020
Alpha 1-antitrypsin (AAT) deficiency arises from an inherited mutation in the SERPINA1 gene. The disease causes damage in the liver where the majority of the AAT protein is produced.

Testing for alpha-1 antitrypsin in COPD in outpatient respiratory clinics in Spain: A multilevel, cross-sectional analysis of the EPOCONSUL study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Background Alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency (AATD) is the most common hereditary disorder in adults, but is under-recognized. In Spain, the number of patients diagnosed with AATD is much lower than expected according to epidemiologic studies.

alpha 1-antitrypsin deficiency.

open access: yesMonaldi archives for chest disease = Archivio Monaldi per le malattie del torace, 1998
Homozygous PIZZ alpha 1-antitrypsin deficiency, which has an incident of 1 in 1600 to 1 in 2000 live births, is the most common genetic cause of liver disease in children. It is also associated with chronic liver disease and hepatocellular carcinoma in adults. It is a well-known cause of pulmonary emphysema.

Idiopathic Hemochromotosis and Alpha‐1‐Antitrypsin Deficiency: Coexistence in a Family with Progressive Liver Disease in the Proband [PDF]

open access: yes, 1983
A patient with coexistent hemochromatosis and alpha‐1‐antitrypsin deficiency which led to cirrhosis and death despite adequate therapy for hemochromatosis is reported. Evaluation of the family revealed first degree relatives with iron overload and others

Augmentation therapy with human alpha-1-proteinase inhibitor reduces exacerbations in patient with bronchiectasis and alpha-1-antitrypsin deficiency

open access: yesRespiratory Medicine Case Reports, 2022
Alpha-1-antitrypsin deficiency (AATD) is a rare cause of noncystic fibrosis (CF) bronchiectasis. The benefits of augmentation therapy in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and pulmonary emphysema are well established.

Detection of alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency: the past, present and future

open access: yesOrphanet Journal of Rare Diseases, 2020
Background Most patients with alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency remain undiagnosed and therefore do not benefit from current therapies or become eligible for research studies of new treatments under development.

Clinical features in patients with severe Alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency due to rare genotypes

open access: yesPulmonology
Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency (AATD) is a co-dominant condition associated with an increased risk of lung and liver disease. Since it is commonly thought that 95% of severe cases of AATD have PI*ZZ genotype, most studies about AATD have been focused on ...
