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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
