Uncoupling of biliary phospholipid and cholesterol secretion in mice with reduced expression of mdr2 P-glycoprotein

Journal of Lipid Research, 1996
Mice in which the gene for mdr2 P-glycoprotein has been disrupted have a severe deficiency in biliary phospholipid and cholesterol secretion. We studied the relation between mdr2 gene expression and biliary lipid secretion with emphasis on the role of ...

Refractory strictures despite steroid injection after esophageal endoscopic resection

Endoscopy International Open, 2016
Background: Although steroid injection prevents stricture after esophageal endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD), some patients require repeated sessions of endoscopic balloon dilation (EBD). We investigated the risk for refractory stricture despite the
