Research Abstract |
The role of autoantigen presentation by autophagy of biliary epitherial cell (BEC) in the pathogenesis of primary biliary cirrhosis was analyzed. Autophagy of BEC was induced by LPS or CpGDNA stimulation and the expression of MHC class II antigen on BEC was induced. PDCE2 specific immunological tolerance was not induced in vitro by immunization of dendritic cell which take autophagy induced BEC. When dendritic cell which take autophagy induced BEC was administered to the animal model of PBC before the bile duct damage was take place, inflammation with bile duct damage was slightly improved compared with control. However, such improvement was not observed when dendritic cell which take autophagy induced BEC was administered after the bile duct damage was take place.,
