The unfolded protein response to PI*Z alpha‐1 antitrypsin in human hepatocellular and murine models [PDF]
Alpha‐1 antitrypsin (AAT) deficiency (AATD) is an inherited disease caused by mutations in the serpin family A member 1 (SERPINA1, also known as AAT) gene.

Alpha-1 antitrypsin Pi∗Z allele is an independent risk factor for liver transplantation and death in patients with advanced chronic liver disease [PDF]
Background & Aims: Alpha-1 antitrypsin (AAT) deficiency causes/predisposes individuals to advanced chronic liver disease (ACLD). However, the role of the SERPINA1 Pi∗Z allele in patients who have already progressed to ACLD is unclear.

Berberine potentiates liver inflammation and fibrosis in the PI*Z hAAT transgenic murine model. [PDF]
BackgroundAlpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency (AATD) is an inherited disease, the common variant caused by a Pi*Z mutation in the SERPINA1 gene. Pi*Z AAT increases the risk of pulmonary emphysema and liver disease.

Mild Iron Overload as Seen in Individuals Homozygous for the Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Pi*Z Variant Does Not Promote Liver Fibrogenesis in HFE Knockout Mice [PDF]
The presence of the homozygous ‘Pi*Z’ variant of alpha-1 antitrypsin (AAT) (‘Pi*ZZ’ genotype) predisposes to liver fibrosis development, but the role of iron metabolism in this process remains unknown.

Integral representation of vertical operators on the Bergman space over the upper half-plane
Let $\Pi $ denote the upper half-plane. In this article, we prove that every vertical operator on the Bergman space $\mathcal{A}^2(\Pi )$ over the upper half-plane can be uniquely represented as an integral operator of the form \begin{equation*} \left ...

Double exotic state productions in pion and kaon induced reactions
In the present work, we investigate the pion/kaon induced $$P_c/P_{cs}$$ P c / P cs productions with $$Z_c$$ Z c state off proton target with an effective Lagrangian approach.

Pionic transitions from $$Z_c(4020)$$ Z c ( 4020 ) to D wave charmonia
In the present work, we investigate the charmed meson loops contributions to the pionic transitions from $$Z_c(4020)^+$$ Z c ( 4020 ) + to the D wave triplets charmonia by using an effective Lagrangian approach.

A quantitative subspace Balian-Low theorem
Let $\mathcal G\subset L^2(\mathbb R)$ be the subspace spanned by a Gabor Riesz sequence $(g,\Lambda)$ with $g\in L^2(\mathbb R)$ and a lattice $\Lambda\subset\mathbb R^2$ of rational density.
