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

␣-1-Antitrypsin (␣1-AT) deficiency is the most common cause of metabolic pediatric liver disease. Hepatocellular injury is caused by toxicity of the mutant ␣-1-antitrypsin Z (␣1-ATZ) molecule retained within hepatocytes. In these studies, we used the PiZ transgenic mouse model of ␣1-AT deficiency to

Alpha-1 antitrypsin (AAT; HUGO symbol, SERPINA1) is one of the major serine protease inhibitors (serpins) in human plasma. Deficiency of AAT is a recognised risk factor for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), attributed to uninhibited neutrophil elastase released into the lung tissue durin
