Evaluation of circulating cell-free DNA in cholestatic liver disease using liver-specific methylation markers
1 Apr 2021
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Quantification of circulating organ-specific cell-free DNA (cfDNA) provides a sensitive measure of ongoing cell death that could benefit evaluation of the cholestatic liver diseases primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) and primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC), which lack reliable non-invasive biomarkers. Our goal in this pilot study was to determine whether liver-specific cfDNA levels are increased in...
