In addition, the number of ARID3A positive inflammation cells in PBC had a strong correlation with aspartate transaminase (AST) (r = 0.3245, p = 0.0035), alkaline phosphatase (ALP) (r = 0.3007, p = 0.0067), γ-Glutamyl transferase (GGT) (r = 0.3608, p = 0.0010) and immunoglobulin M (IgM) (r = 0.2841, p = 0.0117) (Fig. 7B). This evidence concerns the gene CD40LG and primary biliary cholangitis.
