Bile acid synthesis is believed to be regulated by bile salts returning to the liver via the portal vein and suppressing cholesterol 7a-hydroxylase, the rate-limiting enzyme in the bile acid biosynthesis pathway. In order to characterize the relative effectiveness of bile salts in regulating bile ac
We investigated the expression of hepatic transport systems involved in bile secretion during liver regeneration after partial hepatectomy (PH) in rats. Initial studies showed maximal BrdU incorporation 24 hours after PH. Therefore, transporter expression and bile secretion were analyzed in detail a
of bile flow. Insulin treatment (3 units/100 g m body wt/day) in diabetic rats from day 0 (alloxan injection) to day 14 (INS-14 group) and from day 14 to day 24 after alloxan administration (INS-24 group) normalized basal bile salt secretion, taurocholate maximum secretory rate and the bile salt-ind
