Susceptibility
  • to Wegener granulomatosis
  • to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
  • to liver cancer
  • to liver disease
  • Variant & Polymorphism SNP , other
  • linkage desequilibrium
  • SNP increasing the risk of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
  • AAT deficiency variants, besides increasing the risk of lung disease, may predispose to liver disease, particularly if associated with the common Z variant
  • Candidate gene
    Marker
  • SERPINA1 and autoantibodies against SERPINA1 may be useful serum biomarkers for early-stage breast cancer screening and diagnosis
  • peptide regions of SERPINA1 and ENOSF1 expression are potential serum biomarkers for gastric cancer
  • Therapy target
