Abstract

Primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) is an autoimmune-mediated chronic cholestatic liver disease, with the typical biochemical manifestation of significantly elevated alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT), with or without mild-to-moderate elevation of aminotransferases. ALP and GGT play an important role in the diagnosis and monitoring of PBC. With a deeper understanding of PBC, the significance of elevated aminotransferases in diagnosis and treatment has attracted more and more attention. This article briefly summarizes the significance of elevation of aminotransferases in PBC patients.
