Restriction of C1-inhibitor activity in hereditary angioedema by dominant-negative effects of disease-associated SERPING1 gene variants
8 Jun 2023
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Patients with hereditary angioedema experience recurrent, sometimes life-threatening, attacks of edema. It is a rare genetic disorder characterized by genetic and clinical heterogenicity. Most cases are caused by genetic variants in the SERPING1 gene leading to plasma deficiency of the encoded protein C1 inhibitor (C1INH). More than 500 different hereditary angioedema-causing variants have been...
