Molecular alterations of canalicular transport systems in experimental models of cholestasis: possible functional correlations.
The discovery of unidirectional, ATP-dependent canalicular transport systems (also termed "export pumps") for bile salts, amphiphilic anionic conjugates, lipophilic cations, and phospholipids has opened new opportunities for understanding biliary physiology and the pathophysiology of cholestasis. In addition, ATP-independent canalicular transport systems for glutathione and bicarbonate contribu...
متن کاملQuantification of Drug Transport Function across the Multiple Resistance-Associated Protein 2 (Mrp2) in Rat Livers
To understand the transport function of drugs across the canalicular membrane of hepatocytes, it would be important to measure concentrations in hepatocytes and bile. However, these concentration gradients are rarely provided. The aim of the study is then to measure these concentrations and define parameters to quantify the canalicular transport of drugs through the multiple resistance associat...
متن کاملIs intracellular pH and/or intracellular bicarbonate a determinant of bile salt independent canalicular bile formation? The subject revisited.
Canalicular bile formation is a complex process that involves basolateral and apical cell membrane transport, paracellular transport and vesicular transport, all of which may be subject to regulation by pH. We review the concept that apical cell membrane bicarbonate secretion promotes bile salt independent canalicular bile formation. We show that the presence of paracellular electrolyte transpo...
متن کاملQuantitative assessment of canalicular bile formation in isolated hepatocyte couplets using microscopic optical planimetry.
Isolated rat hepatocyte couplets (IRHC) are primary units of bile secretion that accumulate fluid in an enclosed canalicular space with time in culture. We have quantitated the rate of canalicular secretion in IRHC cultured for 4-8 h by measuring the change in canalicular space volume by video-microscopic optical planimetry using high resolution Nomarski optics. Electron microscopic morphometri...
متن کاملRole of membranes in bile formation. Comparison of the composition of bile and a liver bile-canalicular plasma-membrane subfraction.
1. Enzymes, proteins, glycoproteins and lipids of rodent bile were compared with those of a plasma-membrane subfraction originating from the hepatocyte bile-canalicular membrane. 2. Three bile-canalicular glycoprotein enzyme activities were detected in bile. Comparison of the pH optimum and immunoinhibition properties of membrane and bile 5'-nucleotidase activity indicated that they were the sa...
