%X We read with interest the article by Horwich et al. about IgG4-producing plasma cells. The aim of the study was to use IgG4-positivity as a differential biomarker for distinct clinical presentations of plasma cell hepatitis before and after liver transplantation. They found a high degree of IgG4-PC infiltration more frequently associated with plasma cell rejection (PCR) than other types of AIH and concluded that IgG4-positivity might serve as a valuable diagnostic tool in the post-LT setting.
