Aquaporins in the hepatobiliary system

Ultrasound of the Hepatobiliary System

Cutaneous manifestations in disorders of hepatobiliary system

BACKGROUND Hepatobiliary diseases are associated with various mucocutaneous changes that are directly and indirectly associated with these diseases. There is a dearth of studies from India dealing with cutaneous manifestations in liver disorders. AIM This study was conducted to know the spectrum of cutaneous changes and their correlation with liver function tests in patients with disorders of...

Aquaporins in the female reproductive system of mammals.

Water and ion accumulation is the driving force for rapid expansion of the amnion and allantois of mammalian placentae during early gestation, and, therefore, essential for embryonic/fetal growth and survival. Aquaporins (AQP) are a family of small integral plasma membrane proteins that primarily transport water across the plasma membrane. To date, thirteen AQP isoforms (AQP 0-12) have been ide...

Current Models for Predicting Drug-induced Cholestasis: The Role of Hepatobiliary Transport System

Drug-induced cholestasis is the main type of liver disorder accompanied by high morbidity and mortality. Evidence for the role of hepatobiliary pumps in the cholestasis patho-mechanism is constantly increasing. Recognition of the interactions of chemical agents with these transporters at the initial phases of drug discovery can help develop new drug candidates with low cholestasis potential. Th...
