PERCC1‐associated enteropathy: Diagnostic challenges and enteral autonomy achieved with teduglutide
JPGN Reports, EarlyView.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 ...

Protective role of the alpha-1-antitrypsin in intervertebral disc degeneration
Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, 2021 Background Intervertebral disc degeneration is a complex disease with high prevalence. It suggests that cell death, senescence, and extracellular matrix degradation are involved in the pathogenesis. Alpha-1 antitrypsin (AAT), a serine protease inhibitor,

When protein losing enteropathy persists: A case series of viral and lymphatic‐associated etiologies
JPGN Reports, EarlyView.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 ...

Diagnosis of alpha-1-antitrypsin deficiency by DNA analysis of children with liver disease
Arquivos de Gastroenterologia, 2001 Background - Alpha-1-antitrypsin deficiency is a genetic disorder which is transmitted in a co-dominant, autosomal form. Alpha-1-antitrypsin deficiency affects mainly the lungs and the liver leading, in the latter case, to neonatal cholestasis, chronic ...
