homeostasis/metabolism
• high-cholesterol fed mutants infused with tauroursodeoxycholate to determine maximal secretory rates for biliary lipids exhibit slightly higher bile flows and a 200% increase in hepatobiliary excretion of phospholipids compared to wild-type but similar cholesterol secretion rates
|
• cholesterol feeding increases hepatobiliary cholesterol (sterol ester) excretion to a higher level than in wild-type
