TLDR
CCL1-CCR8 interaction may play a critical role in lymphocytic recruitment in IgG4-SC/AIP, leading to duct-centred inflammation and obliterative phlebitis.

Recent advances in autoimmune pancreatitis

TL;DR: Using "AIP" solely for type 1 AIP and to acknowledge its own distinct disease status by using "idiopathic duct-centric chronic pancreatitis" (IDCP) for type 2 AIP are suggested.
Journal ArticleDOI

Activation of biliary tree stem cells within peribiliary glands in primary sclerosing cholangitis.

TL;DR: The findings suggest a key role for peribiliary glands in the progression of bile duct lesions in PSC and could explain the associated high risk of cholangiocarcinoma.
Journal ArticleDOI

Follicular helper T cells in the pathogenesis of IgG4-related disease.

TL;DR: The role of T follicular helper cells in the disease process of IgG 4-RD, in particular, for IgG4 class-switching, plasmablast and plasma cell differentiation, and germinal centre formation is described.

High serum IgG4 concentrations in patients with sclerosing pancreatitis.

TL;DR: Patients with sclerosing pancreatitis have high serum IgG4 concentrations, providing a useful means of distinguishing this disorder from other diseases of the pancreas or biliary tract.
Journal ArticleDOI

IgG4-Related Disease

TL;DR: This book will be useful to physicians in various disciplines such as gastroenterology, rheumatology, ophthalmology, otolaryngology, urology, hematology, respiratory medicine and oral medicine, not only as a textbook but also as an authoritative and comprehensive reference work.

Immunoglobulin G4–Associated Cholangitis: Clinical Profile and Response to Therapy

TL;DR: IAC should be suspected in unexplained biliary strictures associated with increased serum IgG4 and unexplained pancreatic disease, especially with proximal strictures, and the role of immunomodulatory drugs for relapses needs further study.
