Alpha 1-Antichymotrypsin (AACT) also known as cell growthinhibiting gene 24/25 protein and Serpin A3, is a 65-76kDa alpha globulin glycoprotein belongs to the Serpin family. It inhibits the activity of proteases by cleaving them into a different shape or conformation. Deficiency of this protein has been associated with liver disease and variations in this protein’s sequence have been implicated in Alzheimer’s disease. The Alpha 1-Antivhymotrypsin antibody reacts with histiocytes and widely used to identify tumors derived from histiocytes. Its expression is also seen in acinar tumors of the pancreas and salivary gland.
