    • Biliary atresia (BA) is a complex disorder for which the etiology is still far from clear. Newborn infants that develop BA may carry certain genetic defects, resulting in susceptibility to uncertain pathogens with characteristic pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs). The pathogens with their characteristic PAMPs in turn lead to activation of the innate immune system by triggering pattern recognition receptors on the immune cells...

    • Biliary atresia (BA) is a rare disease characterised by a biliary obstruction of unknown origin that presents in the neonatal period. It is the most frequent surgical cause of cholestatic jaundice in this age group...

    • Biliary atresia (BA) is a neonatal obliterative cholangiopathy of unknown etiology. Despite the Kasai procedure, hepatic fibrosis and portal hypertension (PH) still occur. Interleukin-8 (IL-8) is an important mediator of inflammation and immune response in human disease. The objective of this study was to investigate the potential role of IL-8 in the pathogenesis of the progressive, sclerosing, inflammatory process and fibrosis in BA. A total of 60 pediatric patients with BA and 15 healthy children were evaluated...

    • Biliary atresia is a devastating disorder of the newborn in which afflicted infants develop inflammation and fibrosis of the extrahepatic biliary tract, resulting in cirrhosis and end-stage liver disease. Infection with a virus is thought to be a contributing factor in the etiology of biliary atresia. In the murine model of biliary atresia, perinatal exposure to rhesus rotavirus (RRV) results in biliary epithelial cell infection causing bile duct obstruction. The purpose of this study was to determine if tropism for the biliary epithelial cell was unique to RRV...

    • Biliary atresia (BA) is a common cause of infantile cholestasis. Disease progression leads to intra hepaticfibrosis, and thus to the development of PH and EV. Our objective has been to study the relationship between procollagen-III-peptide (PIIIP) and the severity of EV in children with BA after Kasai operation. Children below 15 years of age (n=29) with BA after a Kasai operation were evaluated for EV by endoscopy. Healthy (n=26) children of the same age and sex distribution who participated in the hepatitis B vaccination program served as the controls...
