GENE - TERM ANNOTATION REPORT

RGD ID: 737466
Species: Mus musculus
RGD Object: Gene
Symbol: Ctla4
Name: cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated protein 4
Acc ID: RDO:0004489
Term: Liver Cirrhosis, Biliary
Definition: FIBROSIS of the hepatic parenchyma due to obstruction of BILE flow (CHOLESTASIS) in the intrahepatic or extrahepatic bile ducts (BILE DUCTS, INTRAHEPATIC; BILE DUCTS, EXTRAHEPATIC). Primary biliary cirrhosis involves the destruction of small intra-hepatic bile ducts and bile secretion. Secondary biliary cirrhosis is produced by prolonged obstruction of large intrahepatic or extrahepatic bile ducts from a variety of causes.
Note: Use of the qualifier "multiple interactions" designates that the annotated interaction is comprised of a complex set of reactions and/or regulatory events, possibly involving additional chemicals and/or gene products.
