CXCR3 and primary biliary cholangitis: Moreover, we report that the CXCR3 promoter is demethylated in CD4+ T cells from PBC patients and the expression level of CXCR3 in CD4+ T cells is significantly increased in comparison to controls and inversely correlated with the overall methylation levels of the CXCR3 promoter, indicating that promoter demethylation status contributed to CXCR3 overexpression in CD4+ T cells.
