“…Although they are the most challenging to treat, some successes have been reported. Examples include the rescue of misfolded cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator (CFTR) variant F508⌬ (44) and the Zvariant of ␣ 1 -antitrypsin (45). In the instance of CFTR, the osmolytes glycerol and trimethylamino-oxide have been used (46 -48).…”

“…In previous studies a secretory abnormality in PiZZ a1PI deficiency has been inferred from analyses that allowed only static observations-i.e., immunocytochemistry, x-ray crystallography, and structural analysis of material isolated from liver inclusions (1)(2)(3)(4)12). Technical limitations in biosynthetic labeling and analytical methods in several recent studies examining biosynthesis and secretion of a1PI (25,29) have prevented definitive identification of the mechanism accounting for low serum concentrations in deficient individuals.…”

“…These inclusion bodies contain a1PI according to immunofluorescence studies and amino acid analysis of material isolated from the inclusions (1,2). Second, PiZZ a1PI isolated from intrahepatocyte inclusion bodies appears to be incompletely glycosylated (3,4). There is less sialic acid, galactose, and N-acetylglucosamine and more mannose in hepatic PiZZ a1PI, suggesting that core carbohydrates cannot undergo secondary processing.…”

“…␣1-Antitrypsin (or alpha 1-protease inhibitor, A1Pi) is a protease inhibitor that suppresses neutrophil-derived proteases in the serum and elastase activity in lung tissue. The classical form of A1Pi deficiency results from the Z variant (A1PiZ) that contains a K342E substitution (Bathurst et al, 1984;Crystal, 1990). A1PiZ homozygous individuals can develop emphysema via a loss-of-function mechanism because the altered conformation of A1PiZ results in its recognition and degradation by ERAD (Wu et al, 1994;Werner et al, 1996;Teckman et al, 2001).…”
