a. The increased level of miR-21 in PBMCs leads to the downregulation of RASGRP1 mRNA with the concomitant decrease of DNMT1, triggering immune-driven progression of PBC. b. AMA- negative PBC patients are characterized by enhanced expression of miR-21 and miR-150. The elevated levels of serum miR-21 in AMA- negative PBC decreases gradually as liver fibrosis develops
