The investigation of the frequency of the alpha-1-antitrypsin phenotype in patients with liver cirrhosis.
Objectives: Alpha-1-antitrypsin (AAT) has different phenotypes. Evidence suggests that the abundance of each of these phenotypes may be associated with a disease. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the frequency of AAT phenotypes in patients with liver cirrhosis as well as in healthy individuals.
Methods: In this study, 42 patients with liver cirrhosis were selected. The results of the previous research done by the researcher on healthy individuals were used to construct the control group. After obtaining informed consent, 5 mL of fasting venous blood sample was taken, and phenotypes were analyzed by isoelectric focusing. Data were analyzed using Chi-square and Fisher's exact tests at a significant level of 0.05.
Results: The results of this study indicated that all 42 healthy subjects had an MM allele (100%). However, among 42 patients, 35 (83.3%) had an MM allele, 5 (11.9%) had an MS allele, and 2 (4.8%) had MZ allele. The difference between the two groups was significant (p=0.02). There was no difference between men and women in the allele type (p=0.557).
Conclusions: This study revealed that MS and MZ alleles were observed only in patients with liver cirrhosis, and none of these alleles were found in healthy subjects. Therefore, MS and MZ alleles can be further investigated as risk factors for liver cirrhosis.
期刊介绍：
Hormone Molecular Biology and Clinical Investigation (HMBCI) is dedicated to the provision of basic data on molecular aspects of hormones in physiology and pathophysiology. The journal covers the treatment of major diseases, such as endocrine cancers (breast, prostate, endometrium, ovary), renal and lymphoid carcinoma, hypertension, cardiovascular systems, osteoporosis, hormone deficiency in menopause and andropause, obesity, diabetes, brain and related diseases, metabolic syndrome, sexual dysfunction, fetal and pregnancy diseases, as well as the treatment of dysfunctions and deficiencies. HMBCI covers new data on the different steps and factors involved in the mechanism of hormone action. It will equally examine the relation of hormones with the immune system and its environment, as well as new developments in hormone measurements. HMBCI is a blind peer reviewed journal and publishes in English: Original articles, Reviews, Mini Reviews, Short Communications, Case Reports, Letters to the Editor and Opinion papers. Ahead-of-print publishing ensures faster processing of fully proof-read, DOI-citable articles.
