Effect of Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency on Zinc Homeostasis Genes Regulation and Interaction with Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress Response Associated Genes
2025-05-06
Abstract excerpt
Alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency (AATD) is a genetic disorder caused by mutations in the SERPINA1 gene, leading to reduced levels or impaired function of alpha-1 antitrypsin (AAT). This condition predominantly affects the lungs and liver. The Z allele, a specific mutation in the SERPINA1 gene, is the most severe form and results in the production of misfolded AAT proteins. The misfolded peptides accumulate in the en...
