Article Synopsis
  • Primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) is a liver and immune system condition, and a study investigated the effects of transplanting autologous bone marrow-derived mononuclear cells (BM-MNCs) in affected patients.
  • Sixteen PBC patients underwent BM-MNC harvesting and transplantation between 2017 and 2022, with monitoring of liver function and immune cell changes over time using statistical analyses.
  • The results showed significant improvements in liver function tests and notable changes in immune cell populations, suggesting that BM-MNC transplantation could be a promising therapeutic approach for managing PBC.
