Abstract:
Primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) is a chronic, progressive, intrahepatic cholestasis disease. Its occurrence and development are accompanied by changes in the titer of autoantibodies. However, its pathogenesis, extent of autoantibody changes and their effects are not yet fully understood. Therefore, there is a lack of effective methods for early diagnosis of PBC in patients. Finding specific PBC autoantibody markers will greatly improve the diagnostic efficiency and save early treatment time, thereby improving therapeutic effect and prognosis. This article summarizes several PBC-related serum autoantibody markers.
