Abstrakt: Autoimmune hepatitis is an autoimmune liver condition followed by chronic advanced liver inflammation. Although the pathological mechanism of autoimmune diseases in various tissues of the body is still not well resolved, the autoimmune disorders occur among particular individuals. Genetic competence and environmental factors have an influence on the development of this complication by activating certain immune pathways leading to the destruction of body tissues. The coexistence of autoimmune hepatitis with diseases, such as primary biliary cirrhosis has been proven so far. However, the association of autoimmune hepatitis with other genetic diseases, including diabetes, has not been well documented. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
