Journal ArticleDOI

Glycosylation Repurposes Alpha-1 Antitrypsin for Resolution of Community-acquired Pneumonia.

TL;DR: Altered AAT glycan signatures during the time course of acute infection and resolution of CAP are investigated, and the impact of altered N-glycan structures on the immune-regulatory effector function of AAT is determined.
Journal ArticleDOI

The impact of alpha-1 antitrypsin augmentation therapy on neutrophil-driven respiratory disease in deficient individuals.

TL;DR: Principally, AAT is a serine protease inhibitor; however, over the past number of years, the assessment of AAT as simply an antiprotease has evolved, and it is now recognized that AAT has significant anti-inflammatory properties affecting a wide range of cells, including the circulating neutrophil.
Journal ArticleDOI

Inhaled hypertonic saline for cystic fibrosis: Reviewing the potential evidence for modulation of neutrophil signalling and function

TL;DR: The use of nebulised hypertonic saline (HTS) treatments has been shown to improve mucus clearance in CF and impact positively upon exacerbations, quality of life, and lung function and several mechanisms of HTS likely improve outcome, resulting in clinically relevant enhancement in disease parameters related to increase in mucociliary clearance.
