In homozygous ZZ alpha-1-antitrypsin (AAT) deficiency large quantities of AAT mutant Z protein are synthesized in the liver, but the mutant Z protein folds improperly during biogenesis and is retained within the hepatocytes rather than appropriately secreted. The retained mutant Z protein is ...
Testing for diagnosing alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency is generally accurate. Although no single type of AAT test is perfectly accurate, the combination of test methods enables AAT deficiency to be effectively identified with high levels of confidence. Do I need follow-up tests? If you have an ini...

Alpha-1-antitrypsin (α1AT) is a glycoprotein synthesized by the liver (32, 18, 31, 1) which functions as an enzyme inhibitor. In vitro synthesis and release of α1AT has been demonstrated with the technique of short term liver cultures in the presence of radiolabeled amino acids (1). ...

Cirrhosis caused by alpha-1 antitrypsin can be diagnosed with a liver biopsy. Liver cells are treated with a combination of two reagents(试剂) called Periodic acid and Schiff, or PAS(高碘酸-希夫染色剂). 也可以查查血中的酶的水平。有肝硬化的话可以通过肝活检来诊断,用PAS染色 This test stains ...

Alpha-1 antitrypsin(抗胰蛋白酶)deficiency is a genetic disorder(遗传病)in which a protein called alpha-1antitrypsin is defective or absent, and it causes lung and liver disease. α抗胰蛋白酶缺乏症是一种遗传性疾病,患者体内的一种叫做α抗胰蛋白酶的蛋白质出现了问题或者含量减少了,最终导致肺和肝脏...
