differ from normal cells in many ways; these various differences allow them to grow out of control. Unlike normal cells, cancer cells have an unstoppable growth rate which causes them to divide continuously. They are also able to ignore signals from the body that would normally command healthy cells to die after a certain period of time. Cancer cells are able to influence normal cells allowing them to extract the materials needed in order to grow as tumors. Cancer cells, unlike normal cells are…

Most people have two normal copies of the alpha-1 antitrypsin gene. But individuals with AATD have one normal copy and one damaged copy, or they have two damaged copies.

Carriers produce lower-than-normal levels of the alpha-1 antitrypsin protein, but they still…
