چکیده

The effect of calcium chloride (4.0 mg Ca2+/100 g BW) on the calcium metabolism in the hepatic bile system was investigated in intact and thyroparathyroidectomized rats. The administration of calcium did not alter the serum calcium of intact rats but increased it markedly in thyroparathyroidectomized rats. The administration of calcium to intact rats also caused a significant decrease in the liver plasma membrane Ca-ATPase activity, and a corresponding increase in liver calcium and bile calcium, while no such increase was seen in thyroparathyroidectomized rats. Meanwhile, the administration of calcitonin (CT, 80 MRC mU/100 g BW) to intact rats significantly lowered both serum calcium and liver plasma membrane Ca-ATPase activity, and it also significantly elevated both liver and bile calcium. These results suggest that endogenous CT regulates calcium metabolism in the hepatic bile system of rats after the injection of calcium chloride.

Effect of captopril on TNF-α and IL-10 in the livers of Bile Duct ligated Rats

Background: The renin-angiotensin system has an important role in hepatic inflammation and fibrosis. Renin-angiotensin system blockade by angiotensinconverting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors provides some protective effects against hepatic fibrogenesis. Captopril as an ACE inhibitor can decrease inflammatory mediators and attenuate hepatic fibrosis in the livers of bile duct ligated (BDL) rats. Object...

Effect of calcitonin on the formation, composition, and enzymatic activity of the hepatic bile in guinea pgs.

Porcine calcitonin given to guinea pigs in doses causing hypocalcaemia and hypophosphataemia decreased the bilirubin concentration and increased the activity of gamma glutamyl transpeptidase (GGTP) in the hepatic bile. Calcitonin had no effect on bile flow, its pH, electrolyte composition including calcium, or on the concentration of protein, glucose, cholesterol, nonprotein nitrogen (NPN), and...

Hepatoprotective 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...

The influence of aluminum on some serum parameters related to bone metabolism has been investigated by daily administration of aluminum over different periods of time. Daily administration of aluminum (1 mg/kg BW) for 20 or 50 days elevated serum phosphorous concentration by 16 percent and had no significant effect on serum calcium level. When aluminum was injected as a complex with citric...
