The sera of 17 PBCpatients were examined. As controls, the sera of 167 non-PBC patients and the sera of 1225 normalcontrols aged under 28 were examined.RESULTS: None of the sera from the non-PBC patients or the normal controls was positive for anti-M2shown by the new ELISA. However, the positivity rate for anti-M2 in the PBC patients was 100%(17/17), as shown by the new ELISA.CONCLUSION: The detection system with a good sensitivity and specificity may be used as a powerfulmethod for the diagnosis of PBC.展开更多
