Sažetak
Alpha1-antitrypsin is synthesized mainly in the liver and to a lesser degree, by neutrophils and macrophages. Individuals with α1AT deficiency are prone to early onset lung and liver disease. This condition is the most common genetic cause of liver disease in children and an underappreciated cause of liver disease in adults. My aim is to highlight the current knowledge of this condition in hopes of better understanding its role in these diseases and raise awareness regarding the early diagnosis of this deficiency, in order to avoid major deteriorations, misdiagnosis and to ensure an efficient treatment.
