Abstract excerpt

Biliary atresia (BA) is a neonatal cholangiopathy of unknown etiology that leads to biliary cirrhosis and is the most common cause of liver transplantation in children. A still undetermined hepatobiliary viral infection may elicit an uncontrollable autoimmune response against the biliary epithelial cells in genetically predisposed children and culminates in atresia of the biliary trees. Interleukin 4 (IL4) is...
