Primary biliary cirrhosis: Pathophysiology, clinical presentation and therapy.

World journal of hepatology

PMID: 25954476
World J Hepatol. 2015 May 08;7(7):926-41. doi: 10.4254/wjh.v7.i7.926.

Primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) is an autoimmune, slowly progressive, cholestatic, liver disease characterized by a triad of chronic cholestasis, circulating anti-mitochondrial antibodies (AMA), and characteristic liver biopsy findings of nonsuppurative destructive cholangitis and interlobular bile duct destruction. About 10%...

ABCB4 Disease Presenting with Cirrhosis and Copper Overload-Potential Confusion with Wilson Disease.

Journal of clinical and experimental hepatology

Shneider BL.
PMID: 25755323
J Clin Exp Hepatol. 2011 Sep;1(2):115-7. doi: 10.1016/S0973-6883(11)60131-X. Epub 2011 Nov 09.

A 2-year-old female with cirrhosis was found to have a liver copper of 248 μg/g dry weight. She was eventually diagnosed with ABCB4 disease on the basis of heterozygote A546D and R176W mutations. Her liver disease was partially responsive...

Amphiphilic calixresorcinarene associates as effective solubilizing agents for hydrophobic organic acids: construction of nano-aggregates.

Soft matter

Morozova JE, Syakaev VV, Kazakova EKh, Shalaeva YV, Nizameev IR, Kadirov MK, Voloshina AD, Zobov VV, Konovalov AI.
PMID: 27252123
Soft Matter. 2016 Jul 07;12(25):5590-9. doi: 10.1039/c6sm00719h. Epub 2016 Jun 02.

Here we represent the first example of the formation of mixed nanoscale associates, constructed from amphiphilic calixresorcinarenes and hydrophobic carboxylic acids including drugs. The amidoamino-calixresorcinarene self-associates effectively solubilize hydrophobic carboxylic acids - drugs such as naproxen, ibuprofen, ursodeoxycholic acid...

Physicochemical Properties of Ursodeoxycholic Acid Dispersed in Controlled Pore Glass.

Journal of colloid and interface science

Okonogi S, Oguchi T, Yonemochi E, Puttipipatkhachorn S, Yamamoto K.
PMID: 10421735
J Colloid Interface Sci. 1999 Aug 15;216(2):276-284. doi: 10.1006/jcis.1999.6331.

The objective of this study was to reduce the crystallinity of ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) by solid dispersion with controlled pore glass (CPG). To evaluate the effect of pore diameter and pore volume of CPG on the crystalline properties of...

End-stage Liver Disease in Children.

Current treatment options in gastroenterology

Squires RH.
PMID: 11560788
Curr Treat Options Gastroenterol. 2001 Oct;4(5):409-421. doi: 10.1007/s11938-001-0006-6.

The treatment of children with end-stage liver disease involves the coordinated management of nutritional deficiencies, ascites, pruritus, encephalopathy, and portal hypertension. The implementation of management strategies depends upon a parent or guardian to administer the plan in the context...

Synchronized disappearance of serum HCV-RNA, anti-U1 RNP, anti-La/SS-B, and anti-Scl-70 in a patient with chronic hepatitis.

Hepatology research : the official journal of the Japan Society of Hepatology

Omagari K, Matsuo I, Ohba K, Masuda J, Hazama H, Sakimura K, Kinoshita H, Tsurutani H, Isomoto H, Murase K, Kohno S.
PMID: 11251309

The authors report a rare case of chronic hepatitis in whom normalization of serum aminotransferases was associated with disappearance of serum hepatitic C virus (HCV)-ribonucleic acid (RNA), anti-U1 RNP, anti-La/SS-B, and anti-Scl-70 antibodies without treatment of interferon or corticosteroids....

Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis.

Current treatment options in gastroenterology

Lee YM, Kim DJ.
PMID: 11696273
Curr Treat Options Gastroenterol. 2001 Dec;4(6):469-477. doi: 10.1007/s11938-001-0012-8.

There is no proven medical therapy for primary sclerosing cholangitis. The goal of management should be treatment of symptoms and complications of cholestasis, as well as attempts at treating the underlying disease process. In addition, efforts should be made...

[PRIMARY SCLEROSING CHOLANGITIS].

Revista de gastroenterologia del Peru : organo oficial de la Sociedad de Gastroenterologia del Peru

Dantas W.
PMID: 12140588
Rev Gastroenterol Peru. 2000 Jul-Sep;20(3):270-284.

Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) is a chronic cholestatic and progressive disease, of unknown etiology, characterized by inflammation and fibrosis of intra-hepatic and extra-hepatic biliary tree. Two thirds of the patients have, simultaneously, ulcerative colitis (UC); on the other hand,...

Ursodeoxycholic acid: Mechanism of action and novel clinical applications.

Hepatology research : the official journal of the Japan Society of Hepatology

Ikegami T, Matsuzaki Y.
PMID: 18034825
Hepatol Res. 2008;38(2):123-31. doi: 10.1111/j.1872-034X.2007.00297.x. Epub 2007 Nov 23.

Ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) is used in the treatment of cholestatic liver diseases, gallstone dissolution, and for patients with hepatitis C virus infection to ameliorate elevated alanine aminotransferase levels. The efficacy of UDCA treatment has been debated and the mechanisms...
