Proportion of NCAM-Positive Atypical Ductules in Different Forms of Chronic Liver Disease

Liver Disease % of HEA-125-positive atypical ductuals expressing NCAM
Median Range
Biliary atresia (n = 2) 98 96–100
PBC (n = 2) 86 80–90
PSC (n = 1) 58 54–60
Cryptogenic cirrhosis (n = 2) 26 18–30
Alcoholic cirrhosis (n = 1) 35 20–58
Autoimmune hepatitis (n = 1) 12 5–15

The number of tissue samples studied for the different forms of liver cirrhosis is given in parentheses. For each tissue sample at least three portal tracts were examined at random.
