Abstract:
Autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) is a chronic liver inflammatory disease with unknown etiology, and at present, both genetic and environmental factors are thought to be involved in the pathogenesis of AIH. Environmental exposure has an important impact on the development of AIH. Autoimmune ecology is the study of the interactions between individuals and their environment, the development of imbalance between individuals and environment, and the mechanism of such imbalance in promoting the development of autoimmune disease. This article reviews the research advances in the role of autoimmune ecology in the pathogenesis of AIH.
