Implications of genome-wide association studies in novel therapeutics in primary biliary cirrhosis.

Abstract excerpt

Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have revolutionized the search for genetic influences on complex disorders, such as primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC). Recent GWAS have identified many disease-associated genetic variants. These, overall, highlighted the remarkable contribution of key immunological pathways in PBC that may be involved in the initial mechanisms of loss of tolerance and the subsequent...
