Alpha-1-antitrypsin (AAT) is a protein produced in the liver that protects the body's tissues from being damaged by infection-fighting agents released by its immune system. In alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency, the body's normal production of AAT is reduced, resulting in the destruction of sensitive lung tissue.
Alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency (AAT deficiency) is an inherited condition that raises your risk for lung and liver disease. Alpha-1 antitrypsin (AAT) is a protein that protects the lungs. The liver makes it. If the AAT proteins aren't the right shape, they get stuck in the liver cells and can't reach the lungs.
Alpha-1 antitrypsin (AAT) deficiency is a rare genetic disorder that is passed on in families and can affect the lungs, liver and/or skin. When this condition affects the lungs, it causes COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease).
What is it used for? An AAT test is most often used to help diagnose AAT deficiency in people who develop lung disease at an early age (45 years or younger) and do not have other risk factors such as smoking. The test may also be used to diagnose a rare form of liver disease in infants.
Alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency-associated lung disease is characterized by progressive degenerative and destructive changes in the lungs (emphysema, commonly of the panacinar type). Emphysema is a chronic, usually slowly progressive illness, which most commonly causes shortness of breath.
Background. Alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency (AATD) is of importance in the pathogenesis of pulmonary emphysema, chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases (COPD), and bronchiectasis. Various pulmonary disorders are a typical feature of primary immunodeficiency disease (PID).
People with the MZ genotype do not have severe AATD but are genetic carriersAn Alpha-1 Carrier is a person who has one normal ATT gene (M) and one defective AAT gene (usually S or Z). It does NOT mean you cannot get sick. More of the Z mutation.
Alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency is a common inherited genetic condition that can cause chronic lung and liver disease.
What is meant by the term “Alpha-1 carrier”? An Alpha-1 carrier is a person who has one normal alpha-1 gene (M) and one defective alpha-1 gene (usually Z or S). Being a carrier is very common. It is believed that over 19 million people in the United States are carriers. Most Alpha-1 carriers are MZ or MS.
When the liver is affected by AAT deficiency, symptoms may include tiredness, loss of appetite, weight loss, swelling of the feet or belly, yellowish discoloration of the skin (jaundice) or white part of the eyes, vomiting of blood, or blood in stools.
Everyone has two copies of the gene for AAT and receives one copy of the gene from each parent. Most people have two normal copies of the alpha-1 antitrypsin gene.
Because most people with alpha-1 don't know they have it, many experts recommend alpha-1 testing for everyone with COPD or emphysema. It's also suggested if you have asthma that doesn't get better with treatment.
How does Alpha-1 lung disease affect my life expectancy? People who continue to smoke and have Alpha-1 lung disease, have an average life expectance of about 60 years of age.
There is no cure for alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency. However, the lung diseases that it causes can be treated. The initial treatment is similar to that of emphysema, a type of COPD.
There's only one specific treatment to fight alpha 1: augmentation therapy. It's also called replacement therapy. It's been around for 25 years, but it's attracting more attention. "Augmentation therapy for alpha-1 seems to be very effective," says Robert A.
Categories Z00-Z99 are provided for occasions when circumstances other than a disease, injury or external cause classifiable to categories A00 -Y89 are recorded as 'diagnoses' or 'problems'. This can arise in two main ways:

A genetic hematologic disorder characterized by partial or complete absence of the alpha globin chains of the heme molecule.
They must be used in conjunction with an underlying condition code and they must be listed following the underlying condition. A type 1 excludes note is a pure excludes. It means "not coded here". A type 1 excludes note indicates that the code excluded should never be used at the same time as D56.0.
In most cases the manifestation codes will have in the code title, "in diseases classified elsewhere.". Codes with this title are a component of the etiology/manifestation convention. The code title indicates that it is a manifestation code.
Thalassemia, alpha, homozygous. Clinical Information. A disorder characterized by reduced synthesis of the alpha chains of hemoglobin. The severity of this condition can vary from mild anemia to death, depending on the number of genes deleted.
