Research advances in the pathogenesis of autoimmune hepatitis / 临床肝胆病杂志

ABSTRACT

Autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) is a progressive chronic inflammatory liver disease with unknown etiology. At present, genetic susceptibility and environmental factors are universally recognized as the etiological factors for AIH. With the deepening of research in recent years, other etiological factors, such as immune cells, immune factors, liver transplantation, and drugs, have attracted more and more attention. This article briefly describes related research findings in the past five years.
