This exciting new book brings together the most significant information on the procedures that have generated most of the recent progress in hepatobiliary pathophysiology. The authors describe their unique experiences, including specific technical and analytical problems. Since workers in the field often specialize within a limited area, the methodology covering each of the main aspects in hepatobiliary research is particularly useful. The book also includes an exhaustive reference list.
Bile acids occupy a central position in in the absorption, excretion and metab olism of lipids within the body. Our understanding of their unique properties has illuminated many biochemical and biophysical processes. Animals have evolved a unique system of preserving these important detergent-like molecules within the body and reusing them many times - the enterohepatic circulation. Disorders of the enterohepatic circulation contribute to a correspondingly wide range of diseases, and recent developments have centred in particular on cholesterol gallstone disease and bile acid diarrhoea. Successful manage ment of these diseases is increasingly based on an understanding of the physicochemical ...
