Autoimmune hepatitis type-2 and Epstein-Barr virus infection in a toddler: Art of facts or an artifact?
(2013)Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) can cause frequently asymptomatic (or anicteric) and self-limited hepatitis, while occasionally may result in considerable cholestatic hepatitis. Herein, we describe the case of a previously healthy ... -
Cartilage oligomeric matrix protein on the spot for liver fibrosis evaluation: Too early or too late?
(2017)[No abstract available] -
COMP serum levels: A new non-invasive biomarker of liver fibrosis in patients with chronic viral hepatitis
(2017)Background & aims Recently we have shown that cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP), a fibrillar collagen assembly regulator, is strongly associated with cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma progression. Therefore, ... -
The immunopathogenetic role of autoantibodies in canine autoimmune hepatitis: Lessons to learn from human autoimmune hepatitis
(2012)Autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) is not a disease entity restricted to man, but it can be found in other animals including canines. An increasing number of studies have focused on the immunopathogenesis of human autoimmune ... -
PBC Screen: An IgG/IgA dual isotype ELISA detecting multiple mitochondrial and nuclear autoantibodies specific for primary biliary cirrhosis
(2010)A dual isotype (IgG, IgA) enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) designed to provide enhanced detection of primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC)-specific autoantibodies against both major mitochondrial and nuclear antigens ... -
Promyelocytic leukemia antigen expression: A histological marker for primary biliary cholangitis diagnosis?
(2021)Distinguishing primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) from other cholestatic diseases at the histological level could be assisted by new methods, such as immunohistochemical staining of specific antigens. We evaluated whether ... -
The role of the NLRP3 inflammasome and the activation of IL-1β in the pathogenesis of chronic viral hepatic inflammation
(2018)Background and aims: Chronic viral hepatitis is a prevalent disease with major health implications. Its underlying pathophysiological mechanisms are not fully understood. IL-1β and the NLRP3 inflammasome involvement has ... -
Ultrasonography in differentiation between chronic viral hepatitis and compensated early stage cirrhosis
(2008)AIM: To assess the value of gray scale (GS) and colour Doppler ultrasonography (CDU) in differentiating the progression of chronic viral hepatitis (CVH) and compensated liver cirrhosis (CIR). METHODS: Seventy-two patients ...
