“In conclusion, this study demonstrates that hydrophilic BS such as TUDCA counteract the inhibitory effect of ethanol on bile secretion and vesicular exocytosis as well as the ethanol‐induced cytolitic effect in the isolated perfused rat liver.”
“The inhibitory effect of ethanol on bile flow and BS secretion was significantly (P < .02) attenuated by perfusing liver with the hydrophilic BS, tauroursodeoxycholate (TUDCA), and it was exacerbated (P < .02) by perfusion with the hydrophobic BS, taurodeoxycholate (TDCA).”
