Citations : Parallel comparison of three methodologies for measuring functional C1-inhibitor in Hereditary angioedema patients

Hereditary angioedema (HAE) types I and II are characterized by functional C1 inhibitor (fC1-INH) deficiency which results in bradykinin overproduction. Sensitive, specific and robust methods to quantitate fC1-INH in human samples are required for diagnosing HAE and/or to measure pharmacodynamic activity of C1-INH drugs in clinical studies.
