| The pathogenesis of the disease is unknown at this time, but research indicates that there is an [[Immunology|immunological]] basis for the [[disease]], making it an [[autoimmune disorder]]. Most of the patients (>90%) seem to have anti-mitochondrial antibodies (AMAs) against [[pyruvate dehydrogenase complex]] (PDC-E2), an enzyme complex that is found in the [[mitochondria]].
| |
|
| |
| In addition, a more specific test to confirm this disease from a bone disorder such as Paget's (disease of bone) which also has increases in alkaline phosphatase is the [[Gamma glutamyl transpeptidase|gamma-glutamyl trans peptidase]] test (GGTP). An increase in GGTP could indicate presence of primary biliary cirrhosis.

| A genetic predisposition to disease has been thought important for some time, as evident by cases of PBC in family members, concordance in identical twins, and clustering of autoimmune diseases. In 2009 a Canadian led group of investigators reported in the New England Journal of Medicine results from the first genome scan of PBC patients.<ref>{{cite journal |author=Hirschfield GM, Liu X, Xu C, ''et al.'' |title=Primary biliary cirrhosis associated with HLA, IL12A, and IL12RB2 variants |journal=N.
