A guide to selecting high-performing antibodies for Alpha-1-antitrypsin (UniProt ID: P01009) for use in western blot, immunoprecipitation and flow cytometry [version 1; peer review: 2 approved] [PDF]

F1000Research
Alpha-1-antitrypsin (A1AT), encoded by the SERPINA1 gene, is a circulating serine protease inhibitor that protects the lung from neutrophil elastase–mediated tissue damage.

SERPINA1 methylation as a novel diagnostic marker for early-stage papillary thyroid carcinoma via MAPK6-AKT/mTOR pathway [PDF]

Clinical Epigenetics
Most thyroid nodules can be diagnosed preoperatively by ultrasonography and fine-needle aspiration biopsy. However, accurately differentiating between benign nodules or indolent thyroid tumors and aggressive thyroid cancers remains a significant clinical

Altered polyadenylation site usage in SERPINA1 3’UTR in response to cellular stress affects A1AT protein expression [PDF]

Scientific Reports
Alternative polyadenylation results in different 3’ isoforms of messenger RNA (mRNA) transcripts. Alternative polyadenylation in the 3’ untranslated region (3’UTR) can alter RNA localization, stability and translational efficiency.

Fusion transcripts landscape in hepatocellular carcinoma and potential impact on the expression of fusion partners [PDF]

RNA Biology
Fusion transcripts (FTs) are RNA molecules, also known as chimeric transcripts, formed through chromosomal rearrangements or transcriptional processes, contributing to tumorigenesis.

Identification and characterisation of eight novel SERPINA1 Null mutations [PDF]

Orphanet Journal of Rare Diseases, 2014
Alpha-1 antitrypsin (AAT) is the most abundant circulating antiprotease and is a member of the serine protease inhibitor (SERPIN) superfamily. The gene encoding AAT is the highly polymorphic SERPINA1 gene, found at 14q32.1. Mutations in the SERPINA1 gene can lead to AAT deficiency (AATD) which is associated with a substantially increased risk of lung ...

SERPINA1 gene polymorphisms in a population‐based ALSPAC cohort [PDF]

Pediatric Pulmonology, 2019
Abstract Background There is an association between persistent preschool wheezing phenotypes and school‐age asthma. These wheezing/asthma phenotypes likely represent clinical entities having specific genetic risk factors.

Serpin family A member 1 is an oncogene in glioma and its translation is enhanced by NAD(P)H quinone dehydrogenase 1 through RNA-binding activity

Open Medicine, 2022
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

Experimental Cell Research, 2020
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.

SERPINA1 Peptides in Urine as A Potential Marker of Preeclampsia Severity [PDF]

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2020
Preeclampsia (PE) is a multisystem disorder associated with pregnancy and its frequency varies from 5 to 20 percent of pregnancies. Although a number of preeclampsia studies have been carried out, there is no consensus about disease etiology and pathogenesis so far. Peptides of SERPINA1 (α1-antitrypsin) in urine remain one of the most promising peptide

Pleiotropic associations of heterozygosity for the SERPINA1 Z allele in the UK Biobank [PDF]

ERJ Open Research, 2021
Homozygosity for the SERPINA1 Z allele causes α 1 -antitrypsin deficiency, a rare condition that can cause lung and liver disease. However, the effects of Z allele heterozygosity on nonrespiratory phenotypes, and on lung function in the general ...
