Novel therapeutic targets for primary biliary cholangitis

DOI: 10.3969/j.issn.1001-5256.2017.05.044

  • Primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) is a chronic autoimmune-mediated liver disease manifesting as progressive cholestasis and non-purulent inflammation in small-and medium-sized intrahepatic bile ducts.It finally progresses to liver cirrhosis and liver cancer and greatly threatens patient's life.Studies have found that ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) can treat PBC effectively.There is a constant increase in the proportion of patients with poor response to UDCA who have undergone transplantation or died, and therefore, new therapeutic regimens should be developed as soon as possible.It is necessary to develop new drugs which act on the key processes of disease progression, such as the "upstream" immune response, the "midstream" bile duct injury, and the "downstream" fibrotic process.Combination treatment with drugs targeting different pathways is a trend for future development.This article summarizes current potential therapeutic regimens for PBC and assesses the challenges in the treatment of PBC.
