A genetic disorder that causes lung or liver disease due to low levels of alpha-1 antitrypsin protein. Learn about the symptoms, causes, diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of this condition.
17 Αυγ 2024 · Alpha-1 antitrypsin (AAT) deficiency is a genetically inherited condition characterized by the impaired production of the alpha-1 antitrypsin protein. This protein protects the body from neutrophil elastase, an enzyme released during inflammation and infection.
20 Μαρ 2024 · Alpha-1 antitrypsin (AAT) deficiency is a genetic disorder with an autosomal inheritance pattern and codominant expression of alleles. Allele mutations cause ineffective activity of alpha-1 antitrypsin, the enzyme responsible for neutralising neutrophil elastase.
Alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency (sometimes just called “Alpha-1”) is an inherited genetic disorder that causes low levels of a protein (AAT) that protects your lungs. Alpha-1 increases your risk of developing certain diseases, including emphysema (damaged air sacs in your lungs), cirrhosis (liver scarring) and panniculitis (an uncommon skin ...
8 Απρ 2020 · Alpha1-antitrypsin (AAT) deficiency is one of the most common genetic diseases. Most persons carry two copies of the wild-type M allele of SERPINA1, which encodes AAT, and have normal...
25 Οκτ 2023 · Alpha-1 antitrypsin (AAT) deficiency is a condition that raises your risk for lung and other diseases. AAT is a protein made in your liver to help protect the lungs. If your body does not make enough AAT, your lungs are more easily damaged from smoking, pollution, or dust from the environment.
Alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency is an inherited disorder that may cause lung disease and liver disease. Explore symptoms, inheritance, genetics of this condition.
