Misfolding linked mutations of SERPINA1 gene are uncommon in preeclampsia
Background: Alpha-1 antitrypsin (A1AT) is a protease inhibitor that plays an important role in regulating oxidative stress in preeclampsia (PE). Recent studies have shown that A1AT is misfolded in PE.

Prognostic Value of SERPINA1 as a Biomarker for Poor Survival of Gliomas
Background: Glioma is a primary brain tumor known for its aggressive behavior and poor prognosis. Alpha-1 antitrypsin (SERPINA1) is a protein with a crucial role in regulating inflammatory processes in the body.

Prevalence of SERPINA1 mutations in a bronchiectasis cohort: implications of extended screening for alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency [PDF]
Objective: To evaluate the prevalence of alpha-1 antitrypsin (AAT) variants through SERPINA1 genotyping in patients with non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis, and assess their clinical, functional and radiological characteristics.

Identification and characterisation of seven novel SERPINA1 null mutations
Background- Alpha-1 antitrypsin (AAT) is a serine protease inhibitor, encoded by the highly polymorphic SERPINA1 gene. Mutations in this gene can lead to AAT deficiency (AATD) which is associated with a substantially increased risk of lung and liver ...

Loss of Serpina1 in Mice Leads to Altered Gene Expression in Inflammatory and Metabolic Pathways [PDF]
The SERPINA1 gene encodes alpha1-antitrypsin (AAT), an acute phase glycoprotein and serine protease inhibitor that is mainly (80–90%) produced in the liver. Point mutations in the SERPINA1 gene can lead to the misfolding, intracellular accumulation,

Serpin family A member 1 (SERPINA1) is expressed abundantly in gliomas and can predict unfavorable prognosis of patients with glioma. Studies have shown that nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate quinone dehydrogenase 1 (NQO1) can promote the ...

SERPINA1 modulates expression of amyloidogenic transthyretin
Hereditary transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTR) is caused by amyloid deposition of misfolded transthyretin (TTR) in various tissues. Recently, reduction of circulating serum TTR, achieved via silencing oligonucleotides, was introduced as therapy of ATTR amyloidosis.
