Bile acids trigger cholemic nephropathy in common bile‐duct–ligated mice

open access: yesHepatology, 2013
Tubular epithelial injury represents an underestimated but important cause of renal dysfunction in patients with cholestasis and advanced liver disease, but the underlying mechanisms are unclear.

Probiotic Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG Prevents Liver Fibrosis Through Inhibiting Hepatic Bile Acid Synthesis and Enhancing Bile Acid Excretion in Mice

open access: yesHepatology, 2020
Cholestatic liver disease is characterized by gut dysbiosis and excessive toxic hepatic bile acids (BAs). Modification of gut microbiota and repression of BA synthesis are potential strategies for the treatment of cholestatic liver disease.

PLXDC1+ Tumor‐Associated Pancreatic Stellate Cells Promote Desmoplastic and Immunosuppressive Niche in Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study uncovers the activation, heterogeneity, and regulatory roles of pancreatic stellate cells (PSCs) at single‐cell and spatial levels. It further identifies PLXDC1+ PSCs near aggressive LRRC15+ cancer‐associated myofibroblasts and SPP1+ macrophages, forming a desmoplastic and immunosuppressive tumor niche that promotes CD8+ T cell exhaustion ...

Six Rare Biliary Tract Anatomic Variations: Implications for Liver Surgery

open access: yesEurasian Journal of Medicine, 2011
Objective: The variations in the anatomy of the biliary tract need to be recognized in modern liver surgery. The purpose of this clinical and anatomical study is to describe several novel biliary tract variations and to outline their practical importance

On turbulent friction in straight ducts with complex cross section: the wall law and the hydraulic diameter [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
We develop predictive formulas for friction resistance in ducts with complex cross-sectional shape based on the use of the log law and neglect of wall shear stress nonuniformities. The traditional hydraulic diameter naturally emerges from the analysis as the controlling length scale for common duct shapes as triangles and regular polygons. The analysis

Randomized trial of endoscopic sphincterotomy with balloon dilation versus endoscopic sphincterotomy alone for removal of bile duct stones.

open access: yesGastroenterology, 2013
BACKGROUND & AIMS Limited endoscopic sphincterotomy with large balloon dilation (ESBD) is an alternative to endoscopic sphincterotomy (ES) for removing bile duct stones, but it is not clear which procedure is most effective.

Silk Fibroin Nanoparticles for Enhanced Cuproptosis and Immunotherapy in Pancreatic Cancer Treatment

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Cuproptosis can be triggered via intracellular copper overload mediated by elesclomol (ES).Enhancing ES‐Cu's tumor targeting and circulation stability can efficiently induce tumor cuproptosis. TSF@ES‐Cu protect ES‐Cu, target tumors via natural RGD sequences, and release through multi‐responsiveness.

Recurrent chemical pancreatitis complicating choledochal cystic disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
A seventeen year old lady presented with a twelve year history of self-limiting attacks of severe epigastric pain, associated with occasional fever, normal total white cell count (WCC), normal or mildly elevated serum alanine transaminase (ALT) (13-200iu/

Spontaneous common bile duct perforation due to chronic pancreatitis, presenting as a huge cystic retroperitoneal mass: a case report [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Spontaneous perforation of the bile duct, is a disease in which spontaneous perforation occurs in the wall of the extrahepatic or intrahepatic duct without any traumatic or iatrogenic injury and more often described in neonates.

Endoscopic management of difficult common bile duct stones.

open access: yesWorld Journal of Gastroenterology, 2013
Endoscopy is widely accepted as the first treatment option in the management of bile duct stones. In this review we focus on the alternative endoscopic modalities for the management of difficult common bile duct stones. Most biliary stones can be removed
