Antimitochondrial antibodies of immunoglobulin G3 subclass are associated with a more severe disease course in primary biliary cirrhosis
(2007)Background/Aims: Primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) is characterised by the presence of immunoglobulin (Ig) G antimitochondrial antibodies (AMA), which are routinely detected by indirect immunofluorescence (IFL) using composite ... -
Autoimmunity and Environment: Am I at risk?
(2012)The complex interplay between environmental factors and genetic susceptibility plays an essential role in disease pathogenesis. This is especially true for autoimmunity, where clinical reports, genomic and epidemiological ... -
Bone marrow findings in patients with autoimmune liver diseases
(2008)Background and Aims: We have recently reported quantitative and qualitative differences of the bone marrow (BM) hematopoietic progenitor cells in autoimmune hepatitis type-1 (AIH-1) and primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC). In ... -
Peculiar antibody reactivity to human connexin 37 and its microbial mimics in patients with Crohn's disease
(2011)Background/aims: We found that pooled Crohn's disease (CD) sera strongly react with a human gap-junction connexin 37 (Cx37) peptide and tested for anti-Cx37 antibody reactivity in sera from CD patients and controls. We ... -
Prevalence and clinical significance of immunoglobulin A antibodies against tissue transglutaminase in patients with diverse chronic liver diseases
(2005)The prevalence of celiac disease (CD) and the prevalence and clinical significance of anti-tissue transglutaminase (tTG) antibodies (tTGAbs) in a large series of patients with chronic liver diseases were assessed. We studied ... -
Prevalence and clinical significance of isotype specific antinuclear antibodies in primary biliary cirrhosis
(2005)Background: Antinuclear antibodies (ANA) giving a rim-like/membranous (RL/M) or a multiple nuclear dot (MND) pattern are highly specific for primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC). Aim and subjects: To assess the prevalence of ...
