Role of monocyte chemoattractant protein‐1 in liver fibrosis with transient myeloproliferative disorder in down syndrome

Kenichiro Kobayashi, Takako Yoshioka, Jun Miyauchi, Atsuko Nakazawa, Nobutaka Kiyokawa, Toshiro Maihara, Ikuya Usami – 1 February 2018 – Liver fibrosis is a common complication associated with transient myeloproliferative disorder (TMD) in Down syndrome (DS). The exact molecular pathogenesis that regulates disease progression is largely unknown. We recently found serum and/or urinary monocyte chemoattractant protein‐1 (MCP‐1) as a novel biomarker of liver fibrosis.
