Purpose: Retinoic acid-inducible gene-I(RIG-I)is a member of cytoplasmic viral sensors which plays an important role in inflammation of biliary epithelial cells(BECs). The aim of this study is to examine if RIG-I and C-X-C motif chemokine 10(CXCL10)are involved in the etiology of human biliary atresia(BA).<br> Methods: Immunohistochemical study was performed on surgically resected tissues obtained(June 1994 to March 2016) from 30 infants with BA and non-inflamed hepatic tissues from 7 infants with hepatoblastoma. A semiquantitative scoring system was designed to evaluate the staining with an antibodies to the RIG-I and CXCL10. The expression of RIG-I and CXCL10 in HuCCT1 cholangiocarcinoma cell line were studied by western blotting, ELISA and RT-PCR analyses.<br> Results: Intense immunoreactivity for RIG-I and CXCL10 was detected in BECs in tissues resected from BA patients. The expression of RIG-I and CXCL10 in the hilar tissue was significantly stronger than in the hepatic tissue. Transfection of HuCCT1 cells with poly(I:C), a synthetic analog of viral dsRNA, induced the expression of RIG-I, and knockdown of RIG-I inhibited the induction of CXCL10 in HuCCT1 cells transfected with poly(I:C).<br> Conclusion: These results suggest that RIG-I-CXCL10 cascade may be involved in the etiology of human BA.
