Abstract

AIH is a disease of unknown cause mainly occurring in women of all ages and races. The diagnosis is made based on clinical and laboratory criteria including specific circulating autoantibodies. Liver histology contributes to the diagnosis, its value mainly regarding grading and staging of damage and the exclusion of other morbidities or comorbidities. Our understanding of the molecular pathogenesis of AIH has improved in the last decades, including the identification of autoantigens at the molecular level as well as the function of TH1, TH2, and TH17 cells. In addition, GWAS in recent and upcoming years will help us to understand better disease susceptibility and may also help us to identify patients at particular risk. Therapies with corticosteroids alone, or in combination with azathioprine will be the SOC for the time being and will continue to save lives. Immunosuppressive drugs derived from transplantation medicine, like cyclosporin A, tacrolimus or MMF, offer an alternative for difficult to treat patients, novel more specific and safer immunosuppressive agents are urgently needed. Biological agents, like anti-TNF or anti-B cell antibodies, which interfere with important signal transduction pathways of the immune system have raised expectations within the AIH scientific community. Future therapies likely to enter clinical practice are the use of anti-CD3 or Tregs. However, our next goal is to eliminate AIH as an indication for liver transplantation. Here the end is at hand.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
