a , - Antitrypsin and coeliac disease in Spain
نویسنده
چکیده
Ninety-three Spanish children suffering from coeliac disease and 103 control subjects from the same area were screened for the amount of ao1-antitrypsin (oc1AT) and for any electrophoretic variations in it. In this case-control study no significant differences were detected either in phenotype distribution or amount. The present results indicate that no genetic association exists between a1AT and coeliac disease.

The role of alpha-1-antitrypsin (A1AT) in the small intestinal mucosa in health and disease is poorly understood. We studied the prevalence and distribution of A1AT positive cells in small bowel biopsies from 35 coeliac disease patients and 25 normal controls retrieved from the records of the Department of Pathology, University of Oxford. Serial 6 micron thick paraffin sections were stained wit...
