Alpha-1-antitrypsin-Pittsburgh is a human variant that resulted from a point mutation in the plasma protease inhibitor, alpha 1-antitrypsin (358 Met----Arg). This defect in the alpha 1-antitrypsin molecule causes it to have greatly diminished anti-elastase activity but markedly increased antithrombin activity. In this report, we demonstrate that this variant protein also has greatly increased i...
A monoclonal antibody, designated A2a18b8, of IgG1 class prepared against human alpha 1-antitrypsin, cross-reacts with alpha 1-antitrypsin in the serum of rat and baboon, but not with alpha 1-antitrypsin in serum of rabbit, pig, hamster, guinea pig, dog, or turtle. We used A2a18b8 in an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) developed for human alpha 1-antitrypsin. Preliminary ELISA screenin...
The emphysema associated with the inherited serum deficiency of alpha 1-antitrypsin appears to result from an imbalance between neutrophil elastase and its major inhibitor within the alveolar structures. In the present study we assessed the feasibility of reversing this biochemical defect within the lung via parenteral replacement therapy with an alpha 1-antitrypsin concentrate of normal plasma...
Alpha-1-antitrypsin is the most abundant circulating protease inhibitor. It is mainly produced by the liver and secreted into the circulation where it acts to prevent excessive proteolytic damage in the lungs by the enzyme neutrophil elastase. The most common severe deficiency allele is the Z mutation, which causes the protein to self-associate into ordered polymers. These polymers accumulate w...
5 Year Expression and Neutrophil Defect Repair after Gene Therapy in Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency.
Alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency is a monogenic disorder resulting in emphysema due principally to the unopposed effects of neutrophil elastase. We previously reported achieving plasma wild-type alpha-1 antitrypsin concentrations at 2.5%-3.8% of the purported therapeutic level at 1 year after a single intramuscular administration of recombinant adeno-associated virus serotype 1 alpha-1 antitrypsi...
Approximately 50% of all global blindness is caused by cataract in adults aged ≥50 years. The mechanisms the disease are most arguably related to a redox imbalance and inflammation; therefore, aim study was evaluate processes associated with inflammation patients. Twenty-four patients 22–60 years (62.5% females) participated study, 33 controls 28–60 (66.7% females). Venous blood serum subjects ...
BACKGROUND/AIMS Alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency causes accumulation of mutant alpha-1 antitrypsin molecules in hepatocytes, and is attributed to severe liver injury even in heterozygous state. However, there is a question as to whether alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency is only a cause of liver injury or has a worsening effect on the underlying liver disease. We aimed to determine the role of alpha-...
