Emergencies in neonatal management: jaundice and biliary atresia [PDF]
, 2016 Biliary atresia is a severe and progressive inflammatory process of unknown cause, which initially involves the extrahepatic bile ducts but which quickly proceeds towards the intrahepatic bile tree leading rapidly to biliary cirrhosis. Biliary atresia is

Peribiliary glands are key in regeneration of the human biliary epithelium after severe bile duct injury [PDF]
, 2019 Peribiliary glands (PBG) are a source of stem/progenitor cells organized in a cellular network encircling large bile ducts. Severe cholangiopathy with loss of luminal biliary epithelium has been proposed to activate PBG, resulting in cell proliferation ...

Recent advances on the mechanisms regulating cholangiocyte proliferation and the significance of the neuroendocrine regulation of cholangiocyte pathophysiology [PDF]
, 2013 Cholangiocytes are epithelial cells lining the biliary epithelium. Cholangiocytes play several key roles in the modification of ductal bile and are also the target cells in chronic cholestatic liver diseases (i.e., cholangiopathies) such as PSC, PBC ...

Histological insight into the hepatic tissue of the Nile monitor (Varanus niloticus) [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 The liver of reptiles is considered an important study model for the interaction between environment and hepatic tissue. Little is known about the histology of the liver of reptiles. The aim of the current study was to elucidate the histological architecture of the liver of the Nile monitor (Varanus niloticus).

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