SAHA increases chaperone expression and reduces Z-alpha-1-antitrypsin polymers in a patient specific iPSC-based liver model for alpha-1-antitrypsin deficiency
2026-03-17
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Summary</h4> The most severe phenotype of alpha-1-antitrypsin deficiency (AATD) is caused by the Z-mutation within the SERPINA1 gene. The Glu342Lys substitution causes misfolding and polymerisation of the alpha-1-antitrypsin (AAT) protein, its accumulation in the ER and increases the susceptibility of hepatocytes towards ER-stress. Here, we present an induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-based hepatic model...
