Alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency (AATD) is a rare genetic disorder caused by accumulation of misfolded α-1 antitrypsin within hepatocytes. AATD patients are prone to develop liver disease that remains undiagnosed until the late stages of the disease.

Modified serpinA1 as risk marker for Parkinson’s disease dementia: Analysis of baseline data [PDF]
AbstractEarly detection of dementia in Parkinson disease is a prerequisite for preventive therapeutic approaches. Modified serpinA1 in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) was suggested as an early biomarker for differentiation between Parkinson patients with (PDD) or without dementia (PD).

Proteomics for rejection diagnosis in renal transplant patients: where are we now? [PDF]
Rejection is one of the key factors that determine the long-term allograft function and survival in renal transplant patients. Reliable and timely diagnosis is important to treat rejection as early as possible.

Distinct Roles of IL‐4, IL‐13, and IL‐22 in Human Skin Barrier Dysfunction and Atopic Dermatitis
This study reports the distinct effects of IL‐4, IL‐13, and IL‐22 on bio‐stabilized human skin with intact barriers and immune cells. IL‐4, IL‐13, and IL‐22 upregulate inflammatory mediators, disrupt skin barrier integrity, and reciprocally modulate IL‐4Rα and IL‐22Rα1 receptors.

Proteomic analysis of heart failure hospitalization among patients with chronic kidney disease: The Heart and Soul Study. [PDF]
BACKGROUND:Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) are at increased risk for heart failure (HF). We aimed to investigate differences in proteins associated with HF hospitalizations among patients with and without CKD in the Heart and Soul Study ...

SERPINA2 Is a Novel Gene with a Divergent Function from SERPINA1
Serine protease inhibitors (SERPINs) are a superfamily of highly conserved proteins that play a key role in controlling the activity of proteases in diverse biological processes. The SERPIN cluster located at the 14q32.1 region includes the gene coding for SERPINA1, and a highly homologous sequence, SERPINA2, which was originally thought to be a ...

Malignant ovarian germ cell tumor subtypes exhibit distinct tumor microenvironments. Dysgerminomas harbor abundant nonexhausted T cells, with progenitor exhausted T cells present in 60% of PD‐1–positive cases. However, MHC class I expression is lost across all analyzed subtypes, suggesting that restoring class I expression in dysgerminomas may enhance ...
