Synthesis, in vitro and in vivo evaluation of 3β-[18F]fluorocholic acid for the detection of drug-induced cholestasis in mice [PDF]
Introduction : Drug-induced cholestasis is a liver disorder that might be caused by interference of drugs with the hepatobiliary bile acid transporters. It is important to identify this interference early on in drug development.

Background. Benign recurrent intrahepatic cholestasis (BRIC) is a rare cause of cholestasis with recurrent episodes of jaundice and pruritus without extrahepatic bile duct obstruction.

In contrast with urine formation, bile flow is not dependent on hydrostatic forces, but driven by osmotic pressure of solutes secreted across the apical membrane of hepatocytes and bile duct epithelial cells. This secretory process is mediated by a set of primary active transporters that use ATP hydrolysis to pump solutes against the concentration ...

Intrahepatic Cholestasis in Pregnancy: Review of the Literature
Intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP) is the most common hepatic disorder related to pregnancy in women. It usually develops within the third trimester of pregnancy and presents with pruritus as well as elevated levels of bile acid and/or alanine ...

A Complex Case of Cholestasis in a Patient with ABCB4 and ABCB11 Mutations [PDF]
The low-phospholipid-associated cholelithiasis (LPAC) syndrome is a form of symptomatic cholelithiasis occurring in young adults, characterized by recurrence of symptoms after cholecystectomy and presence of hepatolithiasis.

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 ...

Molecular overview of progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis
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 ...

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.

Cholestasis: human disease and experimental animal models
Cholestasis may result from a failure in bile secretion in hepatocytes or ductular cells, or from a blockade to the free bile flow. Human cholestasis may be induced by many drugs, being antibiotics the more common.
