STAT4 Gene Polymorphisms Are Associated with Susceptibility and ANA Status in Primary Biliary Cirrhosis
Recent genome-wide association studies suggest that genetic factors contribute to primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) susceptibility. Although several reports have demonstrated that the interleukin (IL) 12 signaling pathway is involved in PBC pathogenesis, its precise genetic factors have not been fully clarified. Here, we performed an association analysis between IL12A, IL12RB, and signal transduc...

A case of anti-mitochondrial antibody (AMA)-negative primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) associated with painless thyroiditis is reported in a 47-year-old woman who diagnosed as PBC based on her elevated serum gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase and immunoglobulin M levels, as well as histological findings of destroyed bile ducts surrounded by mononuclear infiltrates in the biopsied liver. She was negati...

متن کاملPrimary biliary cirrhosis associated with pernicious anemia.
Primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) is an autoimmune disease of progressive intrahepatic cholestasia, characterized by chronic nonsuppurative destructive granulomatous cholangitis leading to bile duct loss, fibrosis, and eventually cirrhosis of the liver. Diagnosis is based on a combination of clinical features, a cholestatic pattern indicating abnormal liver function, and the presence of antimitoc...
