Characterization of the Mitochondrial Phenotype Associated with Primary Biliary Cholangitis
DownloadSpring 2017
Primary Biliary Cholangitis (PBC) is a chronic liver disease characterized by the immune-mediated destruction of intra-hepatic bile ducts. The autoimmune nature of PBC involves humoral and cell-mediated responses that target endogenous mitochondrial proteins. It is thought that the breakdown of...

Koleva, Petya, Ketabi, Ali, Dieleman, Levinus A., Gänzle, Michael G., Valcheva, Rosica
Non-digestible oligosaccharides (NDO) were shown to reduce inflammation in experimental colitis, but it remains unclear whether microbiota changes mediate their colitis-modulating effects. This study assessed intestinal microbiota and intestinal inflammation after feeding chemically defined...
