Mechanistic insights into the inhibition of NTCP by myrcludex B
Background & aims: The sodium taurocholate co-transporting polypeptide (NTCP) is the entry receptor for the hepatitis B and delta virus (HBV/HDV) and the main hepatic uptake transporter of conjugated bile acids. Myrcludex B, a synthetic peptide mimicking

Equilibrium Study on Interactions between Proteins and Bile-Salt Micelles by Micellar Electrokinetic Chromatography [PDF]
Interactions between proteins and bile-salt micelles were evaluated on the basis of the binding constants, which were obtained from the migration of proteins in micellar electrokinetic chromatography. The binding constants, Kb=[Pb]/ ([Pw][B]), where [Pb]

To examine quantitatively the hydrophobic-hydrophilic properties of bile salts, we determined the reverse-phase high performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) mobilities of monomeric bile salt solutions and the equilibrium cholesterol-solubilizing ...

Bile salt-dependent inhibition of gallbladder emptying
Little is known about the inhibitory controls of gallbladder emptying. Since cholestyramine, a binding agent that reduces luminal concentration of bile salt, has been reported to accelerate gallbladder emptying, suggesting that bile salt is inhibitory ...

We propose a simple mathematical model to account for the coupling of secretion rates of bile salts, lecithin, and cholesterol into bile. The model assumes that: 1) molecules of ''biliary'' lecithin and cholesterol enter a functional compartment located ...

Eleven strains of lactobacilli were screened for their bile salt deconjugation ability, bile salt hydrolase activity (BSH) and co-precipitation of cholesterol with deconjugated bile.

The role of the hepatocyte microtubular system in the transport and excretion of bile salts and biliary lipid has not been defined. In this study the effects of microtubule inhibition on biliary excretion of micelle- and non-micelle-forming bile salts ...

The phosphatidylethanolamine N-methyltransferase (PEMT) pathway of phosphatidylcholine (PC) biosynthesis is not essential for the highly specific acyl chain composition of biliary PC.

Hepatic Transport of Bile Salts
The vectorial secretion of bile salts from blood into bile is a major driving force for bile formation. The basolateral hepatocyte membrane extracts bile salts from sinusoidal blood via Na(+)-dependent and Na(+)-independent membrane transporters. Na(+)-dependent uptake of bile salts is mediated by the Na(+)-taurocholate co-transporting polypeptide, a ...
