It is the final week of Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency Awareness month, although the month is ending, we still need to be aware of Alpha Antitrypsin Deficiency. This disease affects hundreds of thousands of people, both directly and indirectly. Continue to spread the word in order to help find a cure for Alpha Antitrypsin Deficiency.

The Li Weibo Institute for Rare Diseases Research’s goal is to accelerate the development of novel therapeutics for a host of rare diseases/disorders through innovative research platforms (e.g. gene therapy, RNAi).

Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency creates difficulty in normal everyday activities. We take for granted being able to walk around or even go on a morning jog. Some people with severe Alpha Antitrypsin Deficiency put themselves at risk when doing these activities. Show your support by getting informed.

Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency is when the ATT proteins in your body are not shaped correctly. This causes them to get stuck in the liver cells. This can lead to serious liver or lung damage. Help out by spreading the word.

Between age 1 and age 4, language skills in children who have Rett Syndrome start to rapidly decline. As it progresses, they will also become socially anxious and will stay away from any kind of social situations. This is just one of the signs that your child might have Rett Syndrome. Do you know the signs?

Rett Syndrome stunts growth of children. The brain does not grow properly, which makes the head of the child smaller than normal. The clear stunted growth becomes more and more clear as the child becomes older. Do your part this month by reading about this disease and many other rare diseases.

In the United States, Down Syndrome gets the least funding from the National Institutes of Health out of all the major genetic conditions, even though it is the most common chromosomal condition today. Does this make sense? Spread awareness about Down Syndrome this month.

Rett Syndrome is extremely serious. It can be fatal in as little as 2 years for infants. Even though the average life span of someone with Rett is their early 40s, many patients never live to see 30. Learn more about the battle with this disease on our rare disease section of our website.

In 1983 the average life span of someone with Down Syndrome was 25. Today that number has more than doubled and the average life expectancy of someone with Down Syndrome is 60. One day we hope Down Syndrome will have no affect on life span, and eventually a cure will be found. Spread the word this month for Down Syndrome awareness month.
