Antitrypsin Antibodies

Alpha-1-antitrypsin (AAT) is a serine protease inhibitor primarily produced in the liver, playing a crucial role in protecting tissues from enzymes of inflammatory cells, especially neutrophil elastase. Deficiencies in AAT can lead to conditions such as pulmonary emphysema and liver disease. Accurate detection and quantification of AAT are essential for diagnosing and monitoring these conditions.​
