Abstract excerpt
DNA sequencing of the SERPINA1 gene to detect α1-antitrypsin (AAT) deficiency (AATD) may provide a better appreciation of the individual and cumulative impact of genetic variants on AAT serum levels and COPD phenotypes.AAT serum level and DNA sequencing of the coding regions of SERPINA1 were performed in 1359 participants of the Canadian Cohort Obstructive Lung Disease (CanCOLD) study. Clinical assessment for...
