Alpha-1-antitrypsin (Pi) phenotypes have been determined in 40 patients suffering from Down's syndrome. Thirty-six of the patients were found to have a normal M phenotype, whereas two deficient phenotypes of the MS variety were observed. In addition, two M variants were noted. The ...
The finding is recorded of typical a1-antitrypsin globules, confirmed by immunofluorescence and immunoperoxidase methods, in the hepatocytes of a patient shown to have a normal serum antitrypsin level and normal phenotype (TiM) for a1-antitrypsin. The identification of such globules can no longer be...
Alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency (AATD) is a significantly under-diagnosed genetic condition caused by reduced levels and/or functionality of alpha-1 antitrypsin (AAT), predisposing individuals to lung, liver or other systemic diseases. The management of individuals with the PI*MZ genotype, characterized...
Individuals with severe alpha-1-antitrypsin (alpha1AT) deficiency (phenotype Pi ZZ) are abnormally liable to develop emphysema, but it is uncertain whether those with partial alpha1AT deficiency (phenotypes Pi MS and MZ) are similarly susceptible. This study was undertaken to determine the frequenc...
NP cells are rounded, “chondrocyte-like” morphology; however, it has distinct phenotype and characteristics compared with chondrocytes [5]. α1-antitrypsin (AAT) was discovered in the mid-1950s but only came to prominence in 1963. It was identified as a potent serine protease inhibitor [6]...
Serum levels are 20 to 40 μM in individuals with the common (Pi MM) AAT phenotype (Table 52-1). Serum AAT levels are mildly reduced (15–33 μM) in Pi SS individuals, severely reduced (2.5–7 μM) in Pi ZZ individuals, and absent in Pi Null individuals. Heterozygosity for ...
Alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency (AATD) is a common but still largely under-recognized genetic disorder. It predisposes to liver and lung diseases and rarely to granulomatosis with polyangiitis and necrotizing panniculitis [1]. The wild-type allele is called PI*M while the most common deficient ...
Alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency (AATD, OMIM #613490) is a rare metabolic disorder affecting lungs and liver. The purpose of this study is to assess the impact of the US orphan drug act on AATD by providing a quantitative clinical-regulatory insight into the status of FDA orphan drug approval...
