Alpha-1 antitrypsin (AAT) augmentation therapy involves infusion of plasma-purified AAT to AAT deficient individuals. Whether treatment affects microRNA expression has not been investigated. This study's objectives were to evaluate the effect of AAT augmentation therapy on altered miRNA expression in

The study was designed to investigate if endogenous sulfur dioxide (SO2) was involved in cardiomyocyte autophagy and myocardial hypertrophy stimulated by angiotensin II (Ang II). Thirty-two C57 mice were randomly divided into control, SO2, Ang II and Ang II+SO2 groups.
The pathophysiological role of SERPINA1 in respiratory health may be more strongly determined by the regulation of its expression than by common genetic variants. A family based study of predominantly smoking adults found methylation at two Cytosine-phosphate-Guanine sites (CpGs) in

Acute graft-versus-host disease is a frequent complication associated with allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Patients that become refractory to initial steroid treatment have a poor prognosis. apceth-201 consists of human allogeneic mesenchymal stromal cells, engineered by lentiviral transduction to express
The neutralizing antibody response to influenza virus is dominated by antibodies that bind to the globular head of haemagglutinin, which undergoes a continuous antigenic drift, necessitating the re-formulation of influenza vaccines on an annual basis. Recently, several laboratories have described
