Glycochenodeoxycholate Promotes Liver Fibrosis in Mice with Hepatocellular Cholestasis
Hydrophobic bile salts are considered to promote liver fibrosis in cholestasis. However, evidence for this widely accepted hypothesis remains scarce. In established animal models of cholestasis, e.g., by Mdr2 knockout, cholestasis and fibrosis are both ...
