To study the effect of bile acids on P-glycoproteinmediated drug transport, we performed experiments using multidrug resistant cells and rat canalicular membrane vesicles. Cellular accumulation and efflux of rhodamine 123 were measured in drug-resistant cells by means of computerized quantitative im
Progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis type 1 (PFIC1, Byler disease, OMIM 211600) is a severe inherited liver disease caused by mutations in ATP8B1. ATP8B1 is a member of the type 4 subfamily of P-type ATPases, which are phospholipid flippases. PFIC1 patients generally develop end-stage liver
disease and, in fact, all RIBA-positive patients had abnormal liver histological results. As yet unanswered is the question of whether histological liver disease in the absence of biochemical abnormalities suggestive of hepatic inflammation can progress to more advanced liver disease, including cir
