The formation of bile is a vital function, and its impairment by drugs or infectious, autoimmune, metabolic, or genetic disorders results in the syndrome commonly known as cholestasis.1 The secreti... 

Topics from this paper

Sepsis and cholestasis.
Clinical and pathological features of a prolonged type of acute intrahepatic cholestasis
TLDR
The clinical and pathological features of drug‐induced acute intrahepatic cholestasis are examined to elucidate the pathogenesis of prolonged cases of drug-induced AIC.
Review article: controversies in the management of primary biliary cirrhosis and primary sclerosing cholangitis
Despite considerable advances over the last two decades in the molecular understanding of cholestasis and cholestatic liver disease, little improvement has been made in diagnostic tools and
Drug‐induced cholestasis
TLDR
This review summarizes their variable clinical presentations, examines the role of transport proteins in hepatic drug clearance and toxicity, and addresses the increasing importance of genetic determinants, as well as practical aspects of diagnosis and management.
Prognostic value of biochemical liver parameters in neonatal sepsis‐associated cholestasis
The aim of the study was to evaluate the significance of total bilirubin, aspartate transaminase (AST), alanine transaminase and gamma‐glutamyltransferase (GGT) for predicting outcome in
Mechanisms of cholestasis.
p53‐mediated regulation of bile acid disposition attenuates cholic acid‐induced cholestasis in mice
TLDR
The role of p53 in the regulation of bile acid disposition and cholestasis is investigated and it is found that it contributes to metabolic diseases.
Drug- and chemical-induced cholestasis.
Intrahepatic cholestasis in common chronic liver diseases
TLDR
The aim now was to summarise the current state of knowledge on intrahepatic cholestasis related to chronic liver diseases.

Immunomodulatory effects of ursodeoxycholic acid on immune responses
TLDR
Experimental evidence supporting the usefulness of ursodeoxycholic acid as a potentially beneficial therapeutic agent for primary biliary cirrhosis has been reported from the biochemical and physiological aspects.
Congenital Jaundice in Rats with a Mutation in a Multidrug Resistance-Associated Protein Gene
TLDR
The complementary DNA for rat cmoat, a homolog of the human multidrug resistance gene (hMRP1), was isolated and shown to be expressed in the canalicular membrane of hepatocytes and likely accounts for the TR− phenotype.
Defect of multidrug‐resistance 3 gene expression in a subtype of progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis
TLDR
The absence of the mdr3 P‐glycoprotein may be responsible for this type of PFIC, which, as in the murine model, may be due to a toxic effect of bile acids on the biliary epithelium in absence of biliary phospholipids.
A gene encoding a P-type ATPase mutated in two forms of hereditary cholestasis
TLDR
This gene, called FIC1, is the first identified human member of a recently described subfamily of P-type ATPases; ATP-dependent aminophospholipid transport is the previously described function of members of this subfamily.
Experimental Mallory body formation is accompanied by modulation of the expression of multidrug‐resistance genes and their products
TLDR
This work investigated the relationship between the mechanisms underlying the formation of MBs and the regulation of multidrug resistance (mdr) genes and their products, the P‐glycoproteins (Pgp) in mice fed DDC and GF diets.
Effects of Ursodeoxycholate and cholate feeding on liver disease in FVB mice with a disrupted mdr2 P-glycoprotein gene.
TLDR
The cholangiolitis and its sequelae in the mdr2 knockout mice depend on bile salt hydrophobicity.
Genetic and morphological findings in progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis (Byler disease [PFIC‐1] and Byler syndrome): Evidence for heterogeneity
TLDR
Examination of haplotypes in siblings with ByS in two unrelated non‐Amish families showed that the gene(s) responsible for their disorder did not lie in the PFIC‐1 candidate region, and genetic analysis and light microscopy and TEM of liver may help distinguish PF IC‐1 from other forms of ByS.
