متن کاملThe Discovery of 1 - Antitrypsin
Alpha1-Antitrypsin (AAT), an acute-phase protein, is the prototypic member of the serpin superfamily and a major inhibitor of serine proteases such as neutrophil elastase and protease 3. As an acute-phase protein, AAT is thought to play an important role in limiting host tissue injury by proteases at sites of inflammation. The clinical importance of AAT is highlighted in individuals with inheri...

متن کاملAlpha- 1 Antitrypsin Deficiency in Children: Pulmonary Involvement
Introduction: α1-antitrypsin deficiency (α1-ATD) is one of the most common genetic disorders in white race, a usual cause of liver disease in children, and hepatopulmonary involvement in children and adult. The aim of this case description is presenting a child with early lung disease without liver parenchymal disorder. Case presentation: We describe a 13 year old boy because of exertional dysp...
متن کاملAlpha - 1 - antitrypsin - Pittsburgh A
Alpha-l-antitrypsin-Pittsburgh is a human variant that resulted from a point mutation in the plasma protease inhibitor, a,-antitrypsin (358 Met Arg). This defect in the a,-antitrypsin molecule causes it to have greatly diminished anti-elastase activity but markedly increased antithrombin activity. In this report, we demonstrate that this variant protein also has greatly increased inhibitory act...
