Аlpha-1-antitrypsin deficiency: genetic basis, diagnosis and treatment

Abstract

Alpha-1-antitrypsin (A1AT) deficiency is an under-diagnosed hereditary disorder characterized by reduced serum levels of alpha1-antitrypsin (A1AT) and increased risk to develop lung and liver diseases at an early age. A1AT is encoded by the highly polymorphic SERPINA1 gene. In most cases the clinical manifestations of A1AT deficiency are associated with PiZZ genotype, less frequently, deficient or null alleles may be present. A1AT deficiency is diagnosed by a combination of serum A1AT levels, A1AT phenotyping and/or A1AT genotyping. An accurate diagnosis facilitates the physician’s ability to actively intervene with measures such as smoking cessation and perhaps augmentation therapy.
