(2018)
      Objective Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) is a genetically complex, inflammatory bile duct disease of largely unknown aetiology often leading to liver transplantation or death. Little is known about the genetic ...
    • Liver Expression of Sulphotransferase 2A1 Enzyme Is Impaired in Patients with Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis: Lack of the Response to Enhanced Expression of PXR 

      Wunsch E., Klak M., Wasik U., Milkiewicz M., Blatkiewicz M., Urasinska E., Barbier O., Bielicki D., Bogdanos D.P., Elias E., Milkiewicz P. (2015)
      Background/Aim. Sulphotransferase 2A1 (SULT2A1) exerts hepatoprotective effects. Transcription of SULT2A1 gene is induced by pregnane-X-receptor (PXR) and can be repressed by miR-378a-5p. We studied the PXR/SULT2A1 axis ...
    • Mucosal Autoimmunity to Cell-Bound GP2 Isoforms Is a Sensitive Marker in PSC and Associated With the Clinical Phenotype 

      Sowa M., Kolenda R., Baumgart D.C., Pratschke J., Papp M., Tornai T., Suchanski J., Bogdanos D.P., Mytilinaiou M.G., Hammermann J., Laass M.W., Conrad K., Schramm C., Franke A., Roggenbuck D., Schierack P. (2018)
      Introduction: Zymogen granule glycoprotein 2 (GP2) was demonstrated as first autoimmune mucosal target in primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) associated with disease severity. Autoantibodies to four GP2 isoforms (aGP21−4) ...
