Popis: Autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) is a chronic inflammatory liver disease with unknown etiology. CCN1, an extracellular matrix-associated protein, is associated with carcinoma, inflammation, liver fibrosis, and even autoimmune diseases. However, the role that CCN1 plays in AIH has remained undetermined. In this study, expression of CCN1 in liver was detected by real-time PCR, western blot and immunohistochemistry (IHC). CCN1 level in serum was detected by ELISA. Diagnostic value of CCN1 was determined by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. CCN1 conditional knockout (CCN1
