Asociación entre el gen SERPINA1 y la susceptibilidad al desarrollo de EPOC
Resumen
La enfermedad pulmonar obstructiva crónica (EPOC) representa una de las principales causas de morbimortalidad en el mundo y, aunque el tabaquismo es ampliamente reconocido como su principal factor de riesgo, no todos los fumadores desarrollan la enfermedad, lo que sugiere la existencia de elementos genéticos moduladores de la susceptibilidad individual. En este contexto, el gen SERPINA1 ha emergido como uno de los determinantes más relevantes en la patogénesis de la EPOC, particularmente por su papel en la codificación de la alfa-1 antitripsina (AAT), una proteína inhibidora de la elastasa de neutrófilos.
