Abstract:IntroductionHereditary angioedema (HAE) is a rare, life-threatening autosomal dominant genetic disorder caused by a deficient and/or dysfunctional C1 esterase inhibitor (C1-INH) (type 1 and type 2) leading to recurrent episodes of edema. This study aims to explore HAE patients’ metabolomic profiles and identify novel potential diagnostic biomarkers for HAE. The study also examined distinguishing HAE from idiopathic angioedema (AE).MethodsBlood plasma samples from 10 HAE (types 1/2) patients, 15 patients with i… Show more
