Small molecule screen employing patient-derived iPSC hepatocytes identifies LRRK2 as a novel therapeutic target for Alpha1 Antitrypsin Deficiency
2022-02-02
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>Alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency (A1ATD) is a life-threatening condition caused by inheritance of the SERPINA1-Z genetic variant (PiZ) leading to protein misfolding and liver toxicity. There remain no approved medicines for this disease. Here we report the results of a small molecule screen performed in patient-derived iPSC hepatocytes that identified Leucine-rich repeat kinase-2 (LRRK2),...
