Résumé

Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) is a cholangiopathy associated with high risk of development into end-stage liver disease and hepatobiliary cancer. The pathogenesis is poorly understood, and current clinical care offers limited therapeutic options, primarily relying on liver transplantation. Claudin-1 (CLDN1), a transmembrane protein highly expressed in liver epithelial cells, plays a crucial role in cell-cell communication and signaling. Here we aimed to investigate the functional role of CLDN1 as a mediator and therapeutic target for PSC using patient cohorts combined with murine and patient-derived intervention models.
