Anti-mitochondrial antibody immunofluorescent titres correlate with the number and intensity of immunoblot-detected mitochondrial bands in patients with primary biliary cirrhosis
(2007)Background: Primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC)-specific anti-mitochondrial antibodies (AMA), routinely detected by indirect immunofluoresnce, immunofix various mitochondrial antigens by immunoblot (IB). We have investigated ... -
Asialoglycoprotein receptor (ASGPR) as target autoantigen in liver autoimmunity: Lost and found
(2012)Asialoglycoprotein receptor (ASGPR) has attracted the attention of liver immunologists for many years. This liver-specific lectin was found to be a major B and T cell autoantigenic target in patients with autoimmune liver ... -
Association between the primary biliary cirrhosis specific anti-sp100 antibodies and recurrent urinary tract infection
(2003)Background and aims. Recurrent urinary tract infections (rUTI) have been suggested to be involved in the induction of anti-mitochondrial antibodies (AMA), the serological hallmark of primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC), in ... -
Bioinformatic and immunological analysis reveals lack of support for measles virus related mimicry in Crohn's disease
(2014)Background: A link between measles virus and Crohn's disease (CD) has been postulated. We assessed through bioinformatic and immunological approaches whether measles is implicated in CD induction, through molecular mimicry. ... -
Dust mite species in the households of mite-sensitive dogs with atopic dermatitis
(2012)Background The presence of important house dust and storage mite species in the microenvironment of atopic dogs has not been thoroughly investigated. Objectives To compare the presence and population of five dust mite ... -
Environmental and oral challenge with storage mites in beagles experimentally sensitized to Dermatophagoides farinae
(2010)This study aimed to investigate whether challenge with storage mites elicited flare ups of atopic dermatitis (AD) in Dermatophagoides farinae sensitized atopic Beagles housed in a house dust and storage mite-free environment. ... -
Enzymes as Target Antigens of Liver-Specific Autoimmunity: The Case of Cytochromes P450s
(2008)Characterization of liver-specific autoantigens has given a fresh impetus to research in the pathogenesis of autoimmune liver diseases, viral-triggered and drug-induced autoimmunity affecting the liver. Intriguing is the ... -
PBC triggers in water reservoirs, coal mining areas and waste disposal sites: From Newcastle to New York
(2010)Various environmental factors have been proposed as triggers of primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC), a progressive autoimmune cholestatic liver disease which is characterised by the destruction of the small intrahepatic bile ... -
Role for mycobacterial infection in pathogenesis of primary biliary cirrhosis?
(2012)Primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) is a progressive cholestatic liver disease characterized by the immune-mediated destruction of biliary epithelial cells in small intrahepatic bile ducts. The disease is characterized by ... -
Urinary tract infection as a risk factor for autoimmune liver disease: From bench to bedside
(2012)Autoimmune liver diseases include autoimmune hepatitis (AIH), primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC), and primary sclerosing cholangitis. A variety of environmental and genetic risk factors have been associated with these conditions. ...
