Primary Biliary Cholangitis management: controversies, perspectives, and daily practice implications from an expert panel
2020
Primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) is a rare progressive immune-mediated liver disease that, if not adequately treated, may culminate in end-stage disease and need for transplantation. According to current guidelines, PBC is diagnosed in the presence of antimitochondrial antibodies (AMA) or specific antinuclear antibodies, and of a cholestatic biochemical profile, while biopsy is recommended only in selected cases. All patients receive ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) in first line; the only registered second-line therapy is obeticholic acid (OCA) for UDCA-inadequate responders. Despite the recent advances in understanding PBC pathogenesis and developing new treatments, many grey areas remain. Si…

Autoimmunhepatitis und Overlap-Syndrom: Therapie
2002
Die autoimmune Hepatitis (AIH), die primär biliäre Zirrhose (PBC) und die primär sklerosierende Cholangitis (PSC) werden zum Formenkreis der autoimmunen Lebererkrankungen gezählt. Bei diesen Lebererkrankungen spielen Immunreaktionen gegen wirtseigene Antigene eine herausragende pathogenetische Rolle. Lediglich für die AIH ist die autoimmune Ätiologie hinreichend belegt, während für die anderen beiden Erkrankungen zwar Autoimmunphänomene beschrieben wurden, jedoch die Rolle weiterer konditionierender Faktoren und infektiöser Agenzien weiter zu klären sind. Die Autoimmunhepatitis hat unbehandelt eine ungünstige Prognose und muss deshalb so früh wie möglich diagnostiziert und behandelt werden…

Liver specific deletion of CYLDexon7/8 induces severe biliary damage, fibrosis and increases hepatocarcinogenesis in mice
2012
Background & Aims CYLD is a tumor suppressor gene that is mutated in familial cylindromatosis, an autosomal dominant predisposition to tumors of skin appendages. Reduced CYLD expression has been observed in other tumor entities, including hepatocellular carcinoma. In the present study, we analyzed the role of CYLD in liver homeostasis and hepatocarcinogenesis in vivo . Methods Mice with liver-specific deletion of CYLDexon7/8 ( CYLD FF xAlbCre ) were generated. Liver tissues were histologically analyzed and oval cell activation was investigated. Hepatocarcinogenesis was induced by diethylnitrosamine/phenobarbital (DEN/PB). Microarray expression profiling of livers was performed in untreated …
Extrakorporale Stoßwellenlithotripsie von Gallenblasensteinen: Wie viele Patienten sind geeignet?
2008
The proportion of patients with gallbladder stones suitable for extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy (ESWL) was analysed prospectively in 200 patients aged 17-76 years (62 males, 138 females) with symptomatic cholecystolithiasis. Criteria for inclusion were clinical symptoms, solitary stones (diameter 10-30 mm) or up to three stones with comparable total volume, contractile gallbladder, no calcification of stones, normal biliary tract anatomy. To check these criteria a step-by-step diagnostic procedure was instituted which consisted of history, ultrasonography with contractility test, abdominal X-ray film, computed tomography measurement of stone density, and endoscopic retrograde cholangio…
