AIH diagnosis is typically suspected after ruling out other causes of hepatitis (such as vial hepatitis, hemochromatosis, Wilson's disease, and primary biliary cirrhosis) through serological tests and by findings of high titers of certain autoantibodies (ANA and anti-SMA for type 1 AIH and anti-LKM-1 for type 2 AIH). The gene discussed is BTG3; the disease is hemochromatosis type 1.
