Macrophages in cholangiopathies

Current Opinion in Gastroenterology, 2021
Purpose of review Cholangiopathies are a heterogeneous class of liver diseases where cholangiocytes are the main targets of liver injury. Although available and emerging therapies mainly target bile acids (ursodeoxycholic acid/UDCA, 24-Norursodeoxycholic acid/norUDCA) and related signaling pathways (obeticholic acid, fibrates ...

Ischemic cholangiopathy

Journal of Hepatology, 2006
Bile ducts are supplied with blood exclusively via hepatic arteries. Obstruction of large arteries is rapidly compensated for by the opening of preexisting intrahepatic or transcapsular collateral arteries, which prevents ischemic damage. Ischemic bile duct injury may occur when small hepatic arteries or the peribiliary vascular plexus are injured, or ...

Pathophysiology of Cholangiopathies

Journal of Clinical Gastroenterology, 2005
The diseases of the intrahepatic biliary tree are a large group of potentially evolutive congenital and acquired liver disorders affecting both the adult and pediatric populations. They represent a relevant cause of liver-related morbidity and mortality and an important indication for liver transplantation, particularly in children. While the practical

The Intrahepatic Cholangiopathies

Seminars in Liver Disease, 1998
The intrahepatic biliary epithelial cells or cholangiocytes are the primary focus of injury in many congenital and acquired liver diseases of childhood. Although cholangiocytes account for only 3 to 5% of the liver cell population, injury and progressive loss of intrahepatic bile ducts can result in considerable morbidity and mortality.
