    Notes: Summary Despite very low amounts of albumin (1.7 mg/100 ml) the total plasma protein concentration of a patient with congenital analbuminemia was only slightly reduced to 6.3 g/100 ml. The lack of albumin is compensated by high concentrations of many other plasma proteins. Among the plasma proteins measured,α 1-antitrypsin showed a particularly high level. To investigate the underlying mechanism of this increase we purified plasmaα 1-antitrypsin from the patient, labelled it with125I, and studied its turnover in the analbuminemic patient and two normal volunteers. A half-life of 15 days in the patient compared with 7.5 and 8 days in the normal volunteers was found. The calculated synthesis rate ofα 1-antitrypsin was about twice as high in the patient as in the controls. Therefore, both a longer half-life and an increased synthesis rate contribute to the high level ofα 1-antitrypsin in the plasma of the analbuminemic patient.

    Notes: Summary Analbuminemia (idiopathic hypoalbuminemia) is a rare congenital anomaly of albumin characterised by very low levels of this protein. Only 21 cases have been reported in the literature. The lack of albumin is “compensated” by increased amounts of various circulating plasma proteins. Other not well understood regulatory mechanisms are responsible for the absence of severe clinical consequences. Clinical aspects, genetics and pathophysiology of this disease are discussed.
