Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) is regarded as an autoimmune liver disease and familial clustering of PBC could represent some genetic predisposition to the disease. AIMS: To elucidate the genetic background of PBC by investigating familial cases of PBC. METHODS: Familial cases were picked out from 171 PBC patients who enrolled in this study. We analyzed them and their family members, and compared...
