Common features between neoplastic and preneoplastic lesions of the biliary tract and the pancreas [PDF]
, 2019 The bile duct system and pancreas show many similarities due to their anatomical proximity and common embryological origin. Consequently, preneoplastic and neoplastic lesions of the bile duct and pancreas share analogies in terms of molecular ...

Tissue-Engineered Bile Ducts for Disease Modeling and Therapy [PDF]
Tissue Engineering Part C: Methods, 2021 Recent biotechnical advances in the in vitro culture of cholangiocytes and generation of bioengineered biliary tissue have a high potential for creating biliary tissue to be used for disease modeling, drug screening, and transplantation. For the past few decades, scientists have searched for a source of cholangiocytes, focused on primary cholangiocytes

Benign disease of the common bile duct
Journal of British Surgery, 1988 Abstract The incidence of common bile duct (CBD) pathology in a group of patients with benign biliary disease (n = 505) was found to be 23.2 per cent. The spectrum included 111 patients (90.2 per cent) with CBD stones, 37 of whom (33.3 per cent) had no symptoms or findings pre-operatively indicating CBD involvement.

Bile acids content in brain of common duct ligated rats
Annals of Hepatology, 2012 Introduction. Cholestasis leads to liver cell death, fibrosis, cirrhosis, and eventually liver failure. Bile duct ligated rats constitute an interesting model to study the mechanism of cholestasis, and its action on several organs and tissues, including ...
