Benign Recurrent Intrahepatic Cholestases [PDF]
Benign recurrent intrahepatic cholestasis (BRIC) or idiopathic recurrent intrahepatic cholestasis is a rare case. It is a familial and autosomal recessive. The etiology of BRIC is still unknown. We report the case of a patient with BRIC who suffered from

Bile Acid Receptor Therapeutics Effects on Chronic Liver Diseases [PDF]
In the past ten years, our understanding of the importance of bile acids has expanded from fat absorption and glucose/lipid/energy homeostasis into potential therapeutic targets for amelioration of chronic cholestatic liver diseases.
