Immunological and homeostatic pathways of alpha -1 antitrypsin: a new therapeutic potential

Immunological and homeostatic pathways of alpha -1 antitrypsin: a new therapeutic potential

α -1 antitrypsin (A1AT) is a 52 kDa acute-phase glycoprotein belonging to the serine protease inhibitor superfamily (SERPIN).
