Serum bile acids as a prognostic biomarker in biliary atresia following Kasai portoenterostomy

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Serum bile acid levels predict outcomes in patients with biliary atresia who achieve normalized bilirubin levels after Kasai portoenterostomy. Abstract Background and Aims In biliary atresia, serum bilirubin is commonly used to predict outcomes after Kasai portoenterostomy (KP).

Cholestasis

open access: yesVeterinary Clinics of North America: Small Animal Practice, 1985
Cholestasis can be caused by extrahepatic and intrahepatic pathogenic mechanisms that affect cellular and subcellular functions. The retention of bile results in numerous biochemical abnormalities, some of which are useful as clinical tests. The clinicopathologic findings are often suggestive of the underlying hepatobiliary disorder but are seldom ...

Tauroursodeoxycholic acid exerts anticholestatic effects by a cooperative cPKC alpha-/PKA-dependent mechanism in rat liver. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Objective: Ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) exerts anticholestatic effects in part by protein kinase C (PKC)-dependent mechanisms. Its taurine conjugate, TUDCA, is a cPKCa agonist.

Molecular overview of progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis

open access: yesWorld Journal of Gastroenterology, 2020
Cholestasis is a clinical condition resulting from the imapairment of bile flow. This condition could be caused by defects of the hepatocytes, which are responsible for the complex process of bile formation and secretion, and/or caused by defects in the ...

Compound Heterozygous MYO5B Mutation, a Cause of Infantile Cholestasis: A Case Report

open access: yesJournal of Nepal Medical Association, 2022
Infantile cholestasis is a common clinical problem in early infancy characterised by impairment in bile formation and/or flow. It requires prompt evaluation for underlying aetiology to initiate appropriate management.

Modulation of the unfolded protein response by tauroursodeoxycholic acid counteracts apoptotic cell death and fibrosis in a mouse model for secondary biliary liver fibrosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The role of endoplasmic reticulum stress and the unfolded protein response (UPR) in cholestatic liver disease and fibrosis is not fully unraveled. Tauroursodeoxycholic acid (TUDCA), a hydrophilic bile acid, has been shown to reduce endoplasmic reticulum (

Benign recurrent intrahepatic cholestasis

open access: yesDefinitions, 2020
Benign recurrent intrahepatic cholestasis (BRIC) is characterized by episodes of liver dysfunction called cholestasis. During these episodes, the liver cells have a reduced ability to release a digestive fluid called bile.

Outcomes of 38 patients with PFIC3: Impact of genotype and of response to ursodeoxycholic acid therapy

open access: yesJHEP Reports, 2023
Background & Aims: Progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis type 3 (PFIC3) is a rare liver disease caused by biallelic variations in ABCB4. Data reporting on the impact of genotype and of response to ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) therapy on long ...

Decreased expression of breast cancer resistance protein in the duodenum in patients with obstructive cholestasis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Background/Aims: The expression of transporters involved in bile acid homeostasis is differentially regulated during obstructive cholestasis. Since the drug efflux transporter breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP) is known to transport bile acids, we ...
