Antibody to carbonic anhydrase II, an enzyme abundantly present in biliary epithelium, has been proposed as a diagnostic marker for antimitochondrial antibody-negative PBC. In this study we determine...
Blood fetal microchimerism in primary biliary cirrhosis
Invernizzi, P, De Andreis, C, Sirchia, S M, Battezzati, P M, Zuin, M, Rossella, F, ...
The autoimmune nature of primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) is well established. We tested the hypothesis that fetal microchimerism indicated by the persistence of circulating fetal cells in women years...
