Although CCA has been considered to originate from biliary epithelial cells, recent studies have suggested that multiple cell types can develop into CCA. With regard to the hilar and extrahepatic bile ducts, peribiliary glands (PBGs), a potential stem cell niche of biliary epithelial cells, have attracted attention as the cellular origin of biliary tract cancer. Recent histopathological and experimental studies have suggested that some kinds of inflammation-induced CCA and intraductal papillary neoplasms of the bile duct are more likely to originate from PBGs. During inflammation-mediated cholangiocarcinogenesis, the biliary epithelial injury-induced regenerative response by PBGs is considered a key process. Thus, in this review, we discuss recent advances in our understanding of cholangiocarcinogenesis from the viewpoint of inflammation and the cellular origin of CCA, especially focusing on PBGs.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ijms19061745","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,6,12]],"date-time":"2018-06-12T10:58:32Z","timestamp":1528801112000},"page":"1745","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":25,"title":["Peribiliary Glands as the Cellular Origin of Biliary Tract Cancer"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"19","author":[{"given":"Hayato","family":"Nakagawa","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Gastroenterology, The University of Tokyo, 7-3-1 Hongo, Bunkyo-ku, Tokyo 113-8655, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yuki","family":"Hayata","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Gastroenterology, The University of Tokyo, 7-3-1 Hongo, Bunkyo-ku, Tokyo 113-8655, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Tomoharu","family":"Yamada","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Gastroenterology, The University of Tokyo, 7-3-1 Hongo, Bunkyo-ku, Tokyo 113-8655, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Satoshi","family":"Kawamura","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Gastroenterology, The University of Tokyo, 7-3-1 Hongo, Bunkyo-ku, Tokyo 113-8655, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Nobumi","family":"Suzuki","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Gastroenterology, The University of Tokyo, 7-3-1 Hongo, Bunkyo-ku, Tokyo 113-8655, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kazuhiko","family":"Koike","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Gastroenterology, The University of Tokyo, 7-3-1 Hongo, Bunkyo-ku, Tokyo 113-8655, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2018,6,12]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1215","DOI":"10.1053\/j.gastro.2013.10.013","article-title":"Pathogenesis, diagnosis, and management of cholangiocarcinoma","volume":"145","author":"Rizvi","year":"2013","journal-title":"Gastroenterology"},{"key":"ref_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"95","DOI":"10.1038\/nrclinonc.2017.157","article-title":"Cholangiocarcinoma\u2014Evolving concepts and therapeutic strategies","volume":"15","author":"Rizvi","year":"2018","journal-title":"Nat.
