In recent years, we have witnessed several important paradigm shifts in understanding the molecular basis of liver disease in alpha-1-antitrypsin (AT) deficiency. These shifts have become possible as a result of a number of advances in research on the cell biology of aggregation-prone mutant protein

Liver disease in alpha-1-antitrypsin (alpha1AT) deficiency is caused by a gain-of-toxic function mechanism engendered by the accumulation of a mutant glycoprotein in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). The extraordinary degree of variation in phenotypical expression of this liver disease is believed to

Chronic liver disease affects up to 20% of children with alpha 1-antitrypsin deficiency owing to the PiZZ genotype. Previous observations of a familial occurrence and abnormal immune responses to liver antigens in these patients suggests that immunoregulatory genes may be involved in the pathogenesi
