Enhanced mitochondrial activity reshapes a gut microbiota profile that delays NASH progression

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Improved mitochondrial activity, due to the lack of methylation‐controlled J protein (MCJ), creates a specific microbiota signature that when transferred through cecal microbiota transplantation delays NASH progression by restoring the gut‐liver axis and enhancing hepatic fatty acid oxidation.

Primary biliary cirrhosis: Report [PDF]

open access: yesSrpski Arhiv za Celokupno Lekarstvo, 2002
Chronic non-suppurative destructive cholangitis, the so-called primary biliary cirrhosis, is characterised by changes, which occur in intrahepatic bile ducts in early stages and in hepatic parenchyma as the disease progresses.

Heterogeneity of autoreactive T cell clones specific for the E2 component of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex in primary biliary cirrhosis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
The extraordinary specificity of bile duct destruction in primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) and the presence of T cell infiltrates in the portal tracts have suggested that biliary epithelial cells are the targets of an autoimmune response.

Mitochondrial stress in advanced fibrosis and cirrhosis associated with chronic hepatitis B, chronic hepatitis C, or nonalcoholic steatohepatitis

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Adaptive mitochondrial mechanisms allow mitochondrial resilience and prevent the worsening of fibrosis, while deregulation of these mechanisms promotes the progression from no/minimal‐mild (F0‐F2) fibrosis to advanced fibrosis and cirrhosis (F3‐F4). Abstract Background and Aims Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection causes oxidative stress (OS) and alters ...

Acetylcholine receptor antibody positive generalized Myasthenia gravis in association with Primary Biliary Cirrhosis

open access: yesAnnals of Hepatology, 2010
Primary Biliary Cirrhosis and Myasthenia Gravis are both autoimmune conditions, however, there are only rare case reports of their association. This is a case report of acetylcholine receptor antibody positive generalized myasthenia gravis in a female ...

Genetic predisposition to porto‐sinusoidal vascular disorder: A functional genomic‐based, multigenerational family study

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
A deleterious variant of FCHSD1 results in mTOR pathway overactivation and may cause porto‐sinusoidal vascular disorder (PSVD). The pedigree of the family demonstrated an autosomal dominant disease with variable expressivity. Whole‐genome sequencing and Sanger sequencing both validated the existence of the FCHSD1 variant and the heterozygosity of c ...

Primary biliary cirrhosis and autoimmune cholangitis are not associated with coeliac disease in Crete

open access: yesBMC Gastroenterology, 2002
Background An increased prevalence of coeliac disease in patients with primary biliary cirrhosis has been recently reported. However, in other studies the association has not been confirmed.

Attacking the public health crisis of hepatocellular carcinoma at its roots

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Abstract As the third most common cause of cancer‐related death worldwide with significant mortality rates in the United States, hepatocellular carcinoma has strong association with cirrhosis and chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) with a growing at‐risk population from the rise in chronic liver disease from alcohol use and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease.

Primary Biliary Cirrhosis and Hemolytic Anemia Confusing Serum Bilirubin Levels

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Gastroenterology, 2000
Hemolysis is observed in more than 50% of patients with cirrhosis. However, there has been little documention of the association of primary biliary cirrhosis with autoimmune hemolytic anemia.
