Therapeutic approaches to the problem of biliary sludge and gallstone formation during total parenteral nutrition.

Clinical nutrition (Edinburgh, Scotland)

Murray FE, Hawkey CJ.
PMID: 16839963
Clin Nutr. 1992 Feb;11(1):12-7. doi: 10.1016/0261-5614(92)90057-w.

Prolonged total parenteral nutrition is associated with the development of biliary sludge, which consists of super-saturated bile containing cholesterol crystals, bilirubin granules and a very high concentration of mucin glycoprotein. Reduced gallbladder contractility in TPN patients appears to be...

Management of patients with primary biliary cirrhosis: a practical guide.

BioDrugs : clinical immunotherapeutics, biopharmaceuticals and gene therapy

Nishio A, Neuberger J, Gershwin ME.

The Multiple Facets of ABCB4 (MDR3) Deficiency.

Current treatment options in gastroenterology

Sundaram SS, Sokol RJ.
PMID: 18221610
Curr Treat Options Gastroenterol. 2007 Dec;10(6):495-503. doi: 10.1007/s11938-007-0049-4.

ABCB4 (MDR3), a lipid translocator, moves phosphatidylcholine from the inner to the outer leaflet of the canalicular membrane. Genetic mutations of ABCB4 lead to three distinct but related hepatobiliary diseases. Progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis (PFIC) type 3 is a...

Portal hypertension in primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC): A reversible condition? Yes, but not in all UDCA treated patients.

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

Huet PM, Vincent C, Deslauriers J, Coté J, Fenyves D, Matsutani S, Boileau R, Kerckvoorde JH.
PMID: 19796042

Portal hypertension is not a rare complication of PBC, but there are no useful clinical predictors of its severity. In fact, in PBC patients, the evaluation of portal hypertension needs a direct access to the portal vein in order...

Adsorption of Lithocholic Acid to Fusarium equiseti M41 as an Essential Process in Its Conversion to Ursodeoxycholic Acid.

Applied and environmental microbiology

Nihira T, Nishino T, Maehara M, Kulprecha S, Yoshida T, Taguchi H.
PMID: 16347578
Appl Environ Microbiol. 1988 Mar;54(3):670-675. doi: 10.1128/aem.54.3.670-675.1988.

Fusarium equiseti M41 converts lithocholic acid to ursodeoxycholic acid. Adsorption of lithocholic acid particles to mycelia of F. equiseti M41 is essential in the conversion of lithocholic acid to ursodeoxycholic acid. Production of ursodeoxycholic acid was negligible when particles...

Antimitochondrial antibodies and their significance in diffuse and limited scleroderma.

Journal of clinical rheumatology : practical reports on rheumatic & musculoskeletal diseases

Pope JE, Thompson A.
PMID: 19078387
J Clin Rheumatol. 1999 Aug;5(4):206-9. doi: 10.1097/00124743-199908000-00005.

The increased prevalence of primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) in Sjogren's syndrome and scleroderma has been described. We determined the frequency of antimitochondrial antibodies (AMA) in limited scleroderma, compared with diffuse scleroderma, and have considered their clinical significance because they...

Natural history of primary biliary cirrhosis.

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

Abe M, Onji M.
PMID: 18462379

The natural history of primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) has improved significantly over the last two decades. Most patients are diagnosed with asymptomatic PBC (a-PBC). The prognosis of a-PBC is usually better than that of symptomatic PBC (s-PBC). Among a-PBC...
