Resolution of the circulating pathogenic phenotype of alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency following liver transplantation
2025-12-02
Abstract excerpt
Alpha-1 antitrypsin is a member of the serpin family of protease inhibitors and normally found in monomeric form at high concentration in the circulation. Certain pathogenic variants of this protein self-assemble into flexible chains (polymers) that undergo toxic accumulation in the liver, underlying the development of liver disease, and a corresponding functional deficiency in circulation results in a susceptibil...
