Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanism of Cholestasis: 4. Structural and biochemical changes in the liver and serum in rats after bile duct ligation
Fenton Schaffner,Paolo G. Bacchin,Ferenc Hutterer,H. Herbert Scharnbeck,Laszlo Sarkozi,Helmut Denk,Hans Popper +6 more
TL;DR: The high but transient elevation of transaminase activity soon after bile duct ligation was not associated with morphological signs of injury and the changes in the endoplasmic reticulum with hypertrophy of the smooth form may be adaptive in nature.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanism of cholestasis. 1. Effect of bile acids on microsomal cytochrome P-450 dependent biotransformation system in vitro
Journal ArticleDOI
Alteration of microsomal biotransformation in the liver in cholestasis.
Ferenc Hutterer,Paolo G. Bacchin,Ilene H. Raisfeld,John B. Schenkman,Fenton Schaffner,Hans Popper +5 more
TL;DR: The binding of type I substrate was greatly decreased, and its stimulating effect on P-450 reductase was abolished, suggesting that the effect of cholestasis on the hepatocellular smooth endoplasmic reticulum is to alter the type I binding sites, which is responsible for the hypoactivity of the biotransformation system.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanism of cholestasis. 3. Interaction of synthetic detergents with the microsomal cytochrome P-450 dependentbiotransformation system in vitro. A comparison between the effects of detergents, the effects of bile acids, and the findings in bile duct ligated rats.

TL;DR: A detergent effect of bile acids as an explanation of the alterations of the endoplasmic reticulum in cholestasis is suggested.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanism of cholestasis. 2. Effect of bile acids on the microsomal electron transfer system in vitro.
TL;DR: Dihydroxy bile acids, which give a Type I binding spectrum with cytochrome P-450, increase the initial rate of P- 450 reductase in concentration below 1.0 mM, resulting in a concentration-dependent decrease of theInitial rate ofP-450 reduct enzyme and of the amount of enzymatically reducible P-550.
