Patient Case Study By: Paul, Jen, Chris, & Ben Case & Social History A 65 year old woman with presumed autoimmune hepatitis was transferred to a second hospital for a possible liver transplantation. ● Heavy drinker: 3-5 half gallons of distilled spirits per week ● Minor history of smoking ● Lived alone ● Indoor cat, no other animals ● No recent travel ● Worked in healthcare field ● Family history states no liver problems 6 years before admission to Massachusetts General Hospital Patient receives abnormal liver-function test - Additional testing reveals: - Elevated antinuclear antibody titer - Negative for viral hepatitis Doctors presume autoimmune hepatitis and cirrhosis from her heavy alcohol consumption: - Patient is prescribed glucocorticoids and stops drinking heavily 7 weeks before admission Patient experiences malaise, jaundice, fatigue and seeks treatment at another hospital. Various tests were performed, checking for... Antinuclear Antibody Titer ● Autoimmune responses resemble normal immune responses because they are specifically activated by antigens (like those by pathogens), except that in this case, the antigens are from the host, or self. ● These are called self-antigens, or autoantigens. ○ Give rise to autoreactive effector cells and antibodies ■ Termed: autoantibodies ● The antinuclear antibody is a subtype of autoantibody which attacks proteins in, and the nucleus of, the (host) cell. ● Therefore, elevated levels of antinuclear antibody titer reveals a potential autoimmune disease ○ This would explain the presumptive autoimmune -
