A. Representative H&E profile of liver tissues from an AMA+ and AMA− PBC patient depicting the frequency and absolute number of bile duct (BD)-damaged portal areas. B. The degree of comparative bile duct damage was evaluated using three categories; nil, chronic non-suppurative destructive cholangitis (CNSDC), and ductopenia; it was more severe in portal areas of AMA− than AMA+ PBC livers. C. Scheuer stage of PBC livers did not significantly differ regardless of AMA positivity. (*: p < 0.05 in Fisher’s Exact Test and Mann-Whitney Test in A and B respectively)
