α1-Antitrypsin deficiency
Catherine M. Greene,Stefan J. Marciniak,Jeffrey Teckman,Ilaria Ferrarotti,Mark L. Brantly,David A. Lomas,James K. Stoller,Noel G. McElvaney +7 more
TL;DR: Treatment of A1ATD-associated lung disease includes standard therapies that are also used for the treatment of COPD, in addition to the use of augmentation therapy (that is, infusions of human plasma-derived, purified α1-antitrypsin).
Journal ArticleDOI
European Respiratory Society statement: diagnosis and treatment of pulmonary disease in α1-antitrypsin deficiency.
Marc Miravitlles,Asger Dirksen,Ilaria Ferrarotti,Vladimir Koblizek,Peter Lange,Ravi Mahadeva,Noel G. McElvaney,David G. Parr,Eeva Piitulainen,Nicolas Roche,Jan Stolk,Gabriel Thabut,Alice M Turner,Claus Vogelmeier,Robert A. Stockley +14 more
TL;DR: It is crucial to organise national and international registries and collect information prospectively about the natural history of the disease, as AATD is a rare disease and inequalities in access to therapies across Europe should be addressed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Serum levels and genotype distribution of α1-antitrypsin in the general population
Ilaria Ferrarotti,Gian Andri Thun,Michele Zorzetto,Stefania Ottaviani,Medea Imboden,Christian Schindler,Arnold von Eckardstein,Lucia Rohrer,Thierry Rochat,Erich W. Russi,Nicole Probst-Hensch,Maurizio Luisetti +11 more
TL;DR: A suggestion for a population-based ‘protective threshold’ of AAT serum level, used in decision-making for replacement therapy; more precise ranges framing the intermediate AAT deficiency area, a potential target for future primary prevention are suggested.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mesenchymal Stromal Cell Secretome for Severe COVID-19 Infections: Premises for the Therapeutic Use.
Elia Bari,Ilaria Ferrarotti,Laura Saracino,Sara Perteghella,Maria Luisa Torre,Angelo Corsico +5 more
TL;DR: In the authors' opinion, mesenchymal stem cell secretome could offer a new therapeutic approach in treating COVID-19 pneumonia, due to the broad pharmacological effects it shows, including anti-inflammatory, immunomodulatory, regenerative, pro-angiogenic and anti-fibrotic properties.
Journal ArticleDOI
Laboratory testing of individuals with severe alpha1-antitrypsin deficiency in three European centres.
Marc Miravitlles,Christian Herr,Ilaria Ferrarotti,Rosendo Jardi,Francisco Rodriguez-Frias,M. Luisetti,Robert Bals +6 more
TL;DR: The developments in diagnostic techniques that have taken place in recent years are reviewed, and the practices used in three European centres are described, with the objectives of improving the efficiency of the diagnosis of severe α1-AT deficiency, increasing the numbers of individuals who are detected with the disorder, and assisting the establishment of new patient identification programmes.
