Efficacy, Safety and Tolerability of Volixibat, an IBAT Inhibitor, in Patients With Intrahepatic Cholestasis of Pregnancy. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP) presents with cholestatic pruritus, elevated sBA and increased risk of adverse perinatal outcomes. Volixibat is a minimally absorbed IBAT inhibitor that interrupts enterohepatic recirculation. We describe four patients with ICP with pruritus and sBA > ULN treated with volixibat (20 or 80 mg BID ...

Adaptive mitochondrial mechanisms allow mitochondrial resilience and prevent the worsening of fibrosis, while deregulation of these mechanisms promotes the progression from no/minimal‐mild (F0‐F2) fibrosis to advanced fibrosis and cirrhosis (F3‐F4). Abstract Background and Aims Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection causes oxidative stress (OS) and alters ...

Recent advances on the mechanisms regulating cholangiocyte proliferation and the significance of the neuroendocrine regulation of cholangiocyte pathophysiology [PDF]
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 ...
