Impact of genetic and environmental factors on autoimmune hepatitis
2021, Journal of Translational AutoimmunityApproach to the patient with acute severe autoimmune hepatitis
2020, JHEP ReportsCitation Excerpt :Simplistically, in a genetically predisposed individual who has been exposed to an environmental trigger, a complex immunological process based on T lymphocyte-mediated cell destruction, imbalance in the regulation of immune cells, loss of tolerance and a defective immune response can instigate damage to the liver. Certain viruses (hepatitis A, B, C and measles) have been implicated in the pathogenesis of AIH and are believed to trigger ongoing immune-mediated hepatic inflammation, even after resolution of infection.26–34 In a single-centre study (n = 52) investigating the potential triggers of AIH-ALF, a trigger was found in 50% of cases.35
Etiopathogenesis of autoimmune hepatitis
2018, Journal of AutoimmunityCitation Excerpt :These subjects developed AIH-1 within 5 months after the acute episode of HAV infection [67]. Table 2 [68–75] shows four further cases of AIH triggered by an acute episode of HAV infection. A recent review described the results of a Brazilian study that evaluated the frequency of AIH in patients with chronic HCV infection [63].

2013, Arab Journal of GastroenterologyCitation Excerpt :Viral infections have been proposed as a potential trigger to AIH. The strongest evidence is probably related to hepatitis A virus (HAV) infection [13,14]. AIH can also be triggered by HAV vaccine that contains the whole viral particles that are inactivated with formalin [15].
