title: Alpha-1-antitrypsin (PI) subtypes in Russians and Poles.
abstract: alpha-1-antitrypsin (PI) subtypes were studied in Poles and Russians. The frequencies of the PI alleles were similar in the two populations, with the exception of the Z allele, whose frequency was significantly lower in Poles. The M3 allele frequency, which is highly heterogeneous in European populations, has medium frequencies in Poles and Russians.
