<h4>Background/aims</h4>BALB/c mice with a homozygous deficiency in the Tgfb1 gene are a model of fulminant autoimmune hepatitis (AIH), spontaneously and rapidly developing Th1-mediated IFN-gamma-dependent necroinflammatory liver disease. We sought to understand the molecular basis for fulminant Th1 liver disease and the specific role of the Ifng gene.<h4>Methods</h4>Global gene expression in livers from BALB/c Tgfb1(-/-) mice with and without an intact Ifng gene was assessed by microarray analy ...[more]
