    In a prospective consecutive study, 68 patients with various liver diseases and 67 control persons were examined for the occurrence of smooth muscle antibodies (SMA), antinuclear antibodies (ANA) and mitochondrial antibodies (MTA) of IgG, IgA and IgM class. A determination of serum immunoglobulins (S-IgG, S-IgA and S-IgM) was also performed. IgG-SMA in titres of greater than 80 occurred in 8 of 12 patients (67%) with hepatitis B antigen (HBag)-negative chronic active liver disease (CALD) and not in other diseases. Apart from one patient with primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC), IgG-ANA in titres of greater than 40 were likewise detected only in HBag-negative CALD (33%). The titres of IgG-SMA and IgG-ANA varied analogously with the biochemical liver parametres. There was a mutual exclusion between HBag and IgG-SMA/-ANA in titres of greater than 20, while IgM-SMA occured in titres of 80 in two patients with HBag-positive CALD. The incidence and titres of IgM-SMA and -ANA were not higher than in the controls. IgA-SMA and -ANA were detected only sporadically. The MTA demonstrated were of IgG PCLASS AND TITRES OF GREATER THAN 40 WERE FOUND ONLY IN PATIENTS WITH PBC (4 of 5). Som of the patients in all groups had an increased conenctration of one or more of the serum immunoglobulins. S-IgG levels were found to be significantly higher in CALD than in the other groups
