Primary biliary cholangitis (PBC), a typical autoimmune liver disease, is characterized by an increased infiltration of immune cells. However, the specific molecular mechanisms regulating immune cell migration in PBC are unknown. Engulfment and cell motility 1 (ELMO1) plays an important function in cellular dynamics. In view of this, the aim of this study was to explore the expression of ELMO1 in PBC, its effects on the proliferation, migration, and secretion of inflammatory factors by the mainly regulated immune cells and the specific molecular mechanisms behind it.
