The characteristics of upper airway edema in hereditary and acquired angioedema with C1‐inhibitor deficiency

Clinical and Translational Allergy, 2021
Background Angioedemas localized in the upper airway are potentially life threatening, and without proper treatment, they may lead to death by suffocation. Upper airway edemas (UAE) in bradykinin‐mediated angioedemas can even be the first symptoms of the

Application of a dried blood spot based proteomic and genetic assay for diagnosing hereditary angioedema

Clinical and Translational Allergy, 2023
Background Hereditary angioedema (HAE) with C1‐inhibitor deficiency (C1‐INH‐HAE) is a rare disease caused by low level (type I) or dysfunction (type II) of the C1‐inhibitor protein with subsequent reduction of certain complement protein levels.

Angioedema

Revista Alergia México, 2016
Angioedema is defined as edema of the skin or mucosa, including the respiratory and the gastrointestinal mucosa, which is self-limiting, and in most cases is completely resolved in less than 72 hours. It occurs due to increased permeability of the mucosal and submucosal capillaries and postcapillary venules, with resulting plasma extravasation.

Acquired angioedema [PDF]

Allergy, Asthma & Clinical Immunology, 2010
Acquired angioedema (AAE) is characterized by acquired deficiency of C1 inhibitor (C1-INH), hyperactivation of the classical pathway of human complement and angioedema symptoms mediated by bradykinin released by inappropriate activation of the contact-kinin system.
