Stimulation of bile duct epithelial secretion by glybenclamide in normal and cholestatic rat liver.
Cholestasis is a cardinal complication of liver disease, but most treatments are merely supportive. Here we report that the sulfonylurea glybenclamide potently stimulates bile flow and bicarbonate excretion in the isolated perfused rat liver. Video-microscopic studies of isolated hepatocyte couplets and isolated bile duct segments show that this stimulatory effect occurs at the level of the bil...
متن کاملInduction of Rat Liver Alkaline Phosphatase by Bile Duct Ligation
Bile duct ligation causes a five- to sevenfold increase in the activity of rat liver alkaline phosphatase within 12 hours after ligation and a similar rise in the activity of alkaline phosphatase in serum. The increased serum activity is due entirely to the appearance of a new isoenzyme that has the properties of rat liver alkaline phosphatase. The increase in both serum and liver alkaline phos...
متن کاملThe protective effect of allopurinol on cholestatic liver injury induced by bile duct ligation.
To determine whether oxygen free radicals are responsible for the pathogenesis of the cholestasis induced by ligation of common bile duct (CBD) variables which reflect the hepatic function in the serum, the amount of superoxide radical production, and xanthine oxidase(XO) activity were studied. The activity of serum alanine aminotransferase, bilirubin level in the serum and the amount of supero...
متن کاملHepatoprotective and Antioxidative Effect of Rosmarinic Acid Against Bile Duct Ligated (BDL)-Induced Cholestatic in Male Rats
Aims: Cholestasis is a type of liver disease due to structural damage and dysfunction of hepatobiliary system which at first, results in accumulation of bile acids and other toxins in plasma and hepatic tissue. The aim of the current study was to investigate the possible hepatoprotective effects of rosmarinic acid against oxidative stress and liver injury in bile duct ligation (BDL)- induced ch...
متن کاملIntracellular pH regulation in isolated rat bile duct epithelial cells.
To evaluate ion transport mechanisms in bile duct epithelium (BDE), BDE cells were isolated from bile duct-ligated rats. After short-term culture pHi was measured with a single cell microfluorimetric set-up using the fluorescent pHi indicator BCECF, and calibrated with nigericin in high K+ concentration buffer. Major contaminants were identified using vital markers. In HCO3(-)-free media, basel...
