Department of Human Genetics and Anthropology, School of Public Health, Tehran University of Medical Sciences, Iran.

alpha 1-Antitrypsin (PI) types were studied in patients with toxoplasmosis (n = 84) and controls (n = 143) using isoelectric focusing. The patients showed a lower frequency of rare types (p less than 0.025) and a higher frequency of individuals with increased PI levels (p less than 0.005) compared to controls.
